The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 458 Battle of Jili City ([-])
Zhang Shigui nodded and began to prepare. At this moment, the two Huobao brothers came to Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, the tower has been completed."

It turned out that the task of the two brothers was nothing else, but to build a tower on the east gate.Taking advantage of the height of the city wall, the two brothers quickly built a wooden pagoda about ten feet high.

After Li Chengqian nodded, he led the people directly up to the tower.On it, Li Chengqian could see every move in Jili City.

Naturally, he also saw the situation of Xue Rengui and Wang Junke clearly.It's not that Li Chengqian's eyesight is amazing, but that he holds a high-powered telescope in his hand.

Seeing that Wang Junke was bumping around like a headless chicken, it would not be long before he would be in danger.Li Chengqian directly picked up a bamboo tube from his hand.

Facing the sky, the rope under the bamboo tube was pulled away, and a purple colored smoke went straight to the sky.You can see clearly even miles away.

After Wang Junke saw the purple smoke, he knew that it was Li Chengqian who gave him the order.So he ordered the whole army to start to assemble and no longer disperse.Instead, we choose the main road to move forward.

Immediately afterwards, another burst of blue colored smoke scattered in the sky.Wang Junke couldn't help smiling when he saw it, and ordered directly: "Come here, take out the secret weapon His Highness gave us."

Soon everyone put the materials on their backs on the ground.And began to assemble quickly, and soon a huge crash appeared.

Wang Junke ordered the soldiers to push the crash car and start attacking.This time, instead of looking for a path, I chose a straight line.Anyone who blocks his way will be knocked down with a crash car.It doesn't matter if you are a house or a fence.

And as long as you see someone, you will be shot or killed, and you are not prepared to leave anyone alive.

At the same time, Xue Rengui responded even more quickly, but they did not use Wang Junke's method.Instead, they began to send people to rush into the path with fierce kerosene.

These people are all strong and agile, and they don't give you any chance to attack.As long as you throw the kerosene jar in your hand and turn around, you will retreat.

For a while, there was a pungent smell of kerosene everywhere, and at this moment Xue Rengui picked up the carved bow and put a rocket on the bowstring.Then it shot out into the distance.

Immediately after him, the eight generals of the Huotou Army followed suit and shot the rockets out.Then he led people to quickly withdraw to the city wall.

As a result, the fire spread instantly in Jili City, and no matter how much water was used to fight it, it could not be extinguished.

This angered Zhang Hanlin on the high platform, he never thought that there would be such a broken formation.According to his understanding, the Tang army should send troops to gradually occupy it, and finally achieve the goal of controlling the whole city.

But he never imagined that Tang Jun was not prepared to take this Jili City from him at all.Instead, they are going to turn Jili City into a pile of rubble.And all Goguryeo soldiers and common people in the city were buried with Jili City.

If this momentum continues, let alone three days, the entire Jili City will be over in a short time.

So he began to wave the command flag in his hand, and the Goguryeo soldiers who had been hiding in the dark no longer hid.They all showed up and started to fight back.

At this time, Xue Rengui had already retreated to the city wall, and Yu Chigong and Zhang Shigui didn't do anything at all.Then their target became the only Wang Junke who was rampaging in the city.

At this time, another red smoke flashed in the sky, and Wang Jun knew what he should do.Directly order the entire army to shrink to form a battle formation.

The outer circle is surrounded by rectangular shields, and there are small windows on the shields.Sharp spears protruded from the window.

At the same time, the soldiers started fiddling in the middle again.The cribs were assembled in an instant.And spread out in all directions.

It's just that there is a huge shield covering it, so Goguryeo soldiers can't see it at all.So there was no sense of crisis at all.

When they finally caught Tang Jun's figure, they found a place to vent their anger.Then he waved the weapon in his hand and charged towards Tang Jun.

At this time, Wang Junke gave an order, and the giant shield in front of him suddenly fell down.A tension bed appeared in front of Goguryeo soldiers.

At this time, although the Goguryeo soldiers had seen it, it was too late to dodge.Because Wang Junke has ordered the launch to start.

Following Wang Junke's order, the angry bed began to crazily fire the giant crossbow bolts outward.Each crossbow arrow can take away several Goguryeo soldiers.

Just one round of shooting caused the Goguryeo soldiers to lose nearly thousands of troops.Zhang Hanlin on the high platform couldn't help gnashing his teeth with anger.

And started waving the command flag frantically, mobilizing more soldiers to surround Wang Junke.It is bound to be eaten.

But at this moment, Zhang Shigui at the East Gate finally moved.It's just that Shigui's way of appearing on the stage is a bit too shocking.

Giant chariots are slowly advancing, and all the soldiers are hiding in the giant chariots.It just keeps firing crossbow bolts from the reserved shooting port.

And what's more terrible is that this giant chariot has extremely strong destructive power.A wall would collapse in a few hits from him.

It can be said that Zhang Shigui attacked forward in a crushing manner.It's just that his attack method is very weird.He didn't kill towards the center of the city like Wang Junke did.Instead, advance around the city wall.

All this was naturally seen in Zhang Hanlin's eyes, and Zhang Hanlin couldn't help being furious.He also understood Zhang Shigui's real intention.

That is to use giant chariots to start destroying from the city wall, and then slowly shrink towards the center of the city.The purpose is to eventually turn Jili City into ruins.

Fortunately, the opponent only has a few chariots, if there are dozens or hundreds of them.It is estimated that Jili City will be flattened in less than a day.

So Zhang Hanlin couldn't bear it anymore.The command flag in the general's hand kept shaking, and the war drum behind him also remembered at the same time.

Immediately Zhang Hanlin got off the high platform, and not long after, all the deputy generals in the city returned to the General's Mansion.

Zhang Hanlin gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect Tang Jun to be so despicable. The original plan of gambling and breaking the formation turned into a sneak attack."

"Since this is the case, then we don't need to waste time with them. Burn the eighth and ninth songs to the general. You retreat to the third song and prepare to fight the Tang army to the death."

After the generals heard the sermon.They snorted at the same time, then turned and left.

And at this moment, a person wearing a human mask appeared.And said to Zhang Hanlin with a smile: "Now you should finally believe what I say?"
