Sui and Tang Dynasties: Killing Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty to sacrifice to heaven at the beginni

Chapter 594 Every Inch of City Wall and Inch of Blood
Thanks to the economic development of Huating County in recent years, Li Mu ordered people to rebuild the city wall of Huating County.

If Huating County was still in the dilapidated state it was when Qin Shou first arrived, it might have been broken by the Fusang people long ago.

Today, the newly built Huating County city wall is more than five feet high, and three horses can run side by side on the city wall, which can be called a high city and a thick wall.

On the city wall, drainage holes were left in advance.This drainage hole is used for drainage when it rains.

If someone comes to attack the city, then these drainage holes are not for drainage, but for gold juice.

Pei Yun came up with a plan to disable most of the Sui army's artillery.On the ladder on the city wall, all the people hanging densely are Fusang people.

Let's just say that the current city wall of Huating County, if you look at it from the outside, it looks like a train in India. It is full of people hanging from the inside to the outside, all of them are people.

This time, these Fusang people also went all out, and each of them was brave enough to rush towards the city wall.

As the saying goes, under the reward, there must be a brave man.

Fujii Nobuyoshi can let go, as long as Huating County is captured, there will be no military discipline for three days. This promise, to these Fusang soldiers, is like a bloody blow.

These Fusang soldiers rushed forward one by one desperately, seeing that the city wall of Huating County was in danger.

After all, there are 10,000+ Fusang soldiers outside the city, and there are only a few thousand defenders in the city.

Seeing that Huating County was on the verge of collapse, Li Mu gave the order decisively: "Pour the golden juice."

Following Li Mu's order, the hot golden juice poured down from the drain hole of the city wall.

In an instant, a rain curtain formed above the city wall.

"what!"

"Oh!"

After the golden juice from these cauldrons was poured down, the Fusang soldiers on the ladder were scalded to the point of crying.

Many Fusang soldiers tap danced directly on the ladder.In an instant, these Fusang soldiers fell from the ladder like dumplings.

As a sharp weapon for defending the city, golden juice is disgusting, free of cost, and not small in lethality. Therefore, it is quite popular among the military.

"General, this is a tough battle!"

"I'm afraid that if we take down this Huating County, we will have more than half of the casualties!" Said a general beside Fujii Nobuyoshi.

"General, we have no way out!"

"Even if the casualties are more than half, we have to fight in Huating County!" Pei Yun advised from the side.

Pei Yun had no retreat, and in fact, Fujii Nobuyoshi had no retreat either.

This time, Fusang mobilizes the power of the whole country to attack Huating County. In fact, there are many voices of opposition in their country.

This time, it was Fujii Nobuyoshi who tried his best to overcome all opinions, which made Fusang send troops to Huating County.

If Fujii Nobuyoshi returns without success this time, there is no doubt that there is no way to explain to the people of the country.

The most important thing is his political enemies!
If he returns without success this time, those political enemies of Fujii Nobuyoshi will not let him go.The seizure of military power is a trivial matter, and they might lose their heads.

At this moment, Fujii Nobuyoshi and Pei Yun were two lifelike desperadoes.

I saw that Fujii Nobuyoshi pulled out a long knife from his waist, grabbed his own shirt, and cut off a corner of the shirt lining with one knife.

"Those who dare to retreat are like this robe!" Fujii Nobuyoshi threw a corner of his battle robe on the ground and scolded viciously.

Fujii Nobuyoshi is saying that if you dare to say quit, I will cut off your heads like a robe.

The hierarchy system in the Fusang Army is very strict. After Fujii Nobuyoshi said this, the generals and lieutenants present did not dare to speak.

It is impossible to retreat, so there is nothing else to say, just fight!
Anyway, there are a lot of people in these Fusangs, and their lives are cheap. Even if they use human lives to push hard, the Huating County will have to be bulldozed.

"Don't go back!"

"Don't go back!"

"The general has an order, those who retreat will be killed!"

Fujii Nobuyoshi's personal soldiers directly acted as the supervisory team, bowing their bows and setting arrows behind the Fusang army, but anyone who dared to retreat and shoot directly.

Originally there were Fusang soldiers who wanted to escape, but after being shot and killed several batches of defeated troops who retreated without authorization, these Fusang soldiers did not dare to retreat anymore.

Now stretching the head is also a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife.

It would be better to die on the battlefield than to die in the hands of his own supervisory team.

After the supervising team killed people, Fusang soldiers attacked the city even harder.

"kill!"

"Kill!"

"Boom, boom, boom!"

For a moment, the sound of killing, beating drums, and roaring mixed together.

"General, the disparity in strength between the enemy and us is too great!"

"There are gaps everywhere on the city wall. I'm afraid that the Fusang people will climb up the city wall soon!" A general said to Li Mu with a solemn expression.

Even with thousands of Sui troops relying on city walls and various city defense weapons, it is still difficult to defend against the attack of 10,000+ Fusang people.

In the final analysis, there is a shortage of soldiers.

One Sui army died and one less, and every time a Sui army died, the loopholes in the city defense became bigger.The rest of the surviving brothers are under even greater pressure.

Therefore, as time went by, the Sui army became less and less, and the city wall became more and more difficult to defend.

And once the Fusang people are allowed to climb the city wall, the Fusang army behind them will come up continuously.

After losing the last condescending advantage, Sui Jun is really helpless.

"General, Fusang people are hungry wolves!"

"How about, open the north gate and let the people evacuate first!" Huating County Magistrate said.

At this time, Li Mu was also a little anxious.

The corruption of the battle situation was actually beyond Li Mu's expectations.

Originally, Li Mu felt that after transporting the artillery from the shipyard to the city wall and changing it to city defense artillery, it would be able to effectively kill the Fusang army.

However, these artillery guns obviously did not play the role Li Mu expected.

At this time, if the people in the city were evacuated, it would basically tell the people that Huating County could no longer be guarded.

You know, Huating County is a business center, and what businessmen value most is safety.

Only with sufficient security, businessmen are willing to invest all their wealth here.

Although some factories were looted by pirates before, at least it didn't cause much commotion.

If, at this time, all the people in Huating County were moved to the interior, it would inevitably cause turmoil.

Take the next step!
In Li Mu's heart, relocating the people has already been decided as the next policy. You know, in order to build the trade center in Huating County, Li Mu spent several years of painstaking efforts.

Once the people are dispersed, it will definitely cause turmoil. Once Huating County is broken, years of hard work will be ruined.

"No!"

"The current plan is to try to hold Huating County. Three days, at most three days, our reinforcements will definitely arrive!" Li Mu said coldly.

Immediately, Li Mu told the magistrate of Huating County: "Your civil servants are always ready. If Huating County is destroyed, I will lead the army to fight in the street with Nancheng and Fusang army to delay the time. At that time, you and other civil officials will lead the people out of the city!"

After Li Mu gave these instructions, the magistrate of Huating brought the civil officials to prepare, while Li Mu continued to lead the generals to defend the city.

A clever woman can't cook without rice. No matter how powerful Li Mu is, he is an enemy of thousands of people, and it is difficult to resist an army of 10,000+.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Come on!"

"Come on!"

Under the city wall, Fusang soldiers beat the city wall of Huating County like a tide, wave after wave.

The defenders on the city wall are arrows, gold juice, thunder stones and rolling logs, serving Fusang soldiers in turn.

After all, Huating County is a commercial city, and it is not an important military town.For a long time, Huating County's biggest enemy was the mob of pirates.

Li Mu did not realize his idea that Fusang would dare to attack Da Sui, so naturally he was not prepared.

Soon, there were not enough arrows on the city wall, and neither were there enough thunder stones and rolling logs!
Even, even the golden juice is not enough.

Although the golden juice doesn't cost much, after it's used up, it's worth noticing.

This person pulls it, how can it be useful, and now even the reserves of gold juice are not enough.

Soon, there was nothing left to drop from the walls.

At this moment, Li Mu's eyes swept over those shells.

Since the Fusang people had already attacked the base of the city wall and entered the blind area of ​​the artillery attack, no one was in charge of these artillery shells.

"There it is!" Li Mu slapped his forehead, and he was paying attention, how could he forget this big killer.

It is true that Fusang soldiers are in the blind spot of the artillery, but the fact that these artillery are no longer useful does not mean that these shells are no longer useful!
"Quick, quick!"

"Throw these shells at me, where there are more people!" Li Mu quickly ordered.

Although I don't understand the reason for Li Mu's order, the military orders on the battlefield are overwhelming.

Whether you understand it or not, it will not affect the execution of military orders.

The soldiers of the Sui army picked up the shells and threw them down one by one.

Although these shells are all flowering shells, they are full of iron beads, iron flakes, and gunpowder, and they are not light in weight.

Needless to say, after these shells exploded, many Fusang soldiers were knocked down from the ladder.

Could it be that Li Mu just wanted to hit people with these shells?
of course not!

"Come on, hurry up!"

"Sprinkle fire oil, set off rockets!"

Following another order from Li Mu, the soldiers on the city wall continued to sprinkle fire oil.

Immediately afterwards, a few sporadic rockets shot at the kerosene.

"Hu, hu, hu!"

When the oil met the fire, it ignited instantly, and the fire blazed up.

The rocket ignited the kerosene, and the kerosene ignited the shells that the Sui army had just dropped from the city.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!

"boom!"

Under the city wall, there were explosions one after another.The iron balls and pieces of iron brought up by the explosion continued to kill and wound Fusang soldiers.

The power of this explosion is much stronger than the direct bombardment of artillery.

In an instant, at least [-] to [-] Fusang soldiers were killed or injured on the city wall. Scores of Fusang soldiers fell in a pool of blood, like harvested stubble.

“Fried well!”

“Fried well!”

On the city wall, the exhausted soldiers of the Sui army let out cheers one after another.

Seeing this scene, Li Mu couldn't help but give in.

If these shells are useful, Huating County will be guarded.

"Quartermaster!" Li Mu called the quartermaster and asked him, "Are there still enough shells in the city?"

The quartermaster nodded repeatedly, and replied: "If you go back to the general, there are enough shells in the city!"

Because Li Mu's plan is to build dozens of sailing battleships, but because the construction speed of sailing battleships is too slow, the casting speed of artillery is fast.

It is also for this reason that there are a lot of artillery and shells in stock.

Now that there are enough shells, it will not be difficult to hold Huating County.

Hearing the news that the shells were sufficient, Li Mu's expression softened immediately, and he ordered: "Since the shells are sufficient, follow the same method, and Huating County will have no worries!"

Some people are happy and some are sad!

Countless shells were dropped on the city wall, directly clearing out a large area of ​​Fusang soldiers.

"Boom!"

Everywhere was like thunder falling into the world. At this time, the Fusang soldiers who had not yet approached the city wall, Sa Yazi, retreated.

At this time, it is useless for the supervising team to shout and kill.

There are only 800 people in a supervising team, but now more than [-] people are retreating.The supervising team can't stop it at all, and there is no way to stop it.

Soon, the people of the supervisory team were submerged in the crowd.

General Fusang, who was in charge of commanding the troops, was killed two on the spot, and the rest were also disgraced by the bombing.

Fusang camp.

General Fusang, who was in charge of commanding the troops, knelt in a row in front of Fujii Nobuyoshi, all drooping their heads and not speaking.

There is nothing to say at this time, this is the second time that Fujii Xinyi really wants to chop off their heads, there is nothing to say.

Fujii Nobuyoshi looked at these Fusang generals with a look of hatred, and said angrily: "Come on, pull me out and chop!"

Hearing this, Pei Yun, who had been standing behind Fujii Nobuyoshi, stood up quickly and persuaded: "General, no! Absolutely no!"

"It's bad luck to kill the generals in front of the battle! No, absolutely no!"

Pei Yun thought to himself, this failure really cannot be blamed on these generals.Originally, the city wall was already crumbling, but no one thought that Li Mu would leave behind such an ultimate move.

In the situation just now, whoever you replaced would fail, and if Fujii Nobuyoshi went up by himself, this would probably be the result.

From the perspective of the author, in Pei Yun's opinion, among Fusang generals, these are the only ones who look decent.The rest of them are more like wine bags and rice bags. If these people are beheaded, Huating County will be even more helpless.

Fujii Nobuyoshi was also angry for a while, not that he really wanted to kill these generals.These generals are all his confidantes, humerus, beheading these generals, wouldn't that be self-defeating?
Fujii Nobuyoshi looked at the generals kneeling in front of him, and said sharply: "Since Mr. Pei begged for you, I will spare your life for the time being!"

"However, you also have to remember that you can't do anything again and again. If you can't beat Huating County this time, don't come back, just cut yourself open in the city!"
