Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 559 Strikes Halfway, But On The Opposite Side

Pang Ju led [-] players to Dahang City to build a dock for refitting transport ships here.

In order to be able to launch an attack on Yuguan from the sea, the transport ships of Bohai State need to be further modified to install turrets on board.

Dahang City, also known as Dandong in the future, is a natural harbor in Northeast Asia.

The location of Dandong Port is also quite good. The fleet that bypasses the peninsula can just resupply in Dandong, and then continue south to enter the Bohai Sea. It is a city with a very important geographical location.

Such an important city on land and sea is facing abandonment because of Datang's contraction policy, and even has to hand it over to the Silla people on the opposite side. This is something players can't bear!

This Dahang City has been the territory of our Tang Dynasty since ancient times, and you guys also want to fight for it?
Pang Ju immediately led the players to the edge of the Yalu River.

At the same time, An Shougui was inspecting the barracks.

There are [-] soldiers in the entire barracks. These are the assets saved by the An family, and they are also a powerful force in Silla.

This army is the new army trained by An Shougui's father following the Tang family's system.

It is also because of this army loyal to Anjia that Anjia can control Silla North Province in the royal court of Silla and rank among the powerful ministers.

An Shougui regularly patrols the barracks every day to win over the officers and soldiers.

An Shougui also knew that the army was quite dissatisfied with him.

This son of the An family has been confronting each other on the Yalu River for a month, and it is obvious that the opposite is only an old soldier from the Tang Dynasty, and An Shougui has been reluctant to attack for a long time.

An Shougui refused to seize the city of the Tang people, so the soldiers would brave the wind and snow to build a city on the side of the Yalu River, digging the frozen soil every day, and laying down Dahang City to survive the winter warmly, wouldn't it?

When An Shougui was patrolling the camp to appease the arrogant soldiers, a scout suddenly came to report.

"What, Tang Jun is calling?"

An Shougui gasped, and almost ordered to retreat.

At this time, Jin Zai, the deputy general beside him, asked loudly: "How many troops does the Tang army have, and where do they come from?"

The scout quickly said: "General Hui, the Tang Army has 300 troops, and they came out of Dahang City!"

Jin Zai immediately cupped his hands and said to An Shougui: "Your Majesty, this must be the last reinforcement of the Anton Protectorate! As long as this Tang army is destroyed, the entire Anton will be in our pocket!"

An Shougui frowned, and Jin Zai said again: "My lord, this time the Tang army took the initiative to attack our army. If we don't fight back, I'm afraid it will hurt the morale of the army!"

Although Jin Zai is An Shougui's deputy general, this new army is usually trained by Jin Zai, and An Shougui is only the commander-in-chief of the army in name.

An Shougui doesn't understand military affairs, and the specific command of operations is also handed over to Jin Zai.

Jin Zai's status in An's family is not low, and he is also a confidant who directly serves An Shougui's father.

This time, Jin Zai was arranged to assist An Shougui to train the next generation of An family's heirs, and it was also to allow An Shougui and Jin Zai to get along so that they could have a tacit understanding in the future.

Therefore, An Shougui couldn't completely ignore Jin Zai's suggestion. What's more, when Jin Zai said it, the soldiers around drew their weapons and geared up. Obviously, this month's construction of the city across the river has suffocated these soldiers. up.

An Shougui sighed, he knew that the morale of the army must not be violated, although he didn't want to start a war with Datang, but his officers and soldiers were going to fight, and he couldn't stop him.

An Shougui said: "Then open the camp and line up to meet the enemy. If the Tang people really attack, we must show them some color!"

Jin Zai immediately bowed his head to accept the order, and the soldiers also cheered.

An Shougui rode out of the camp, and he saw Tang Jun in the snow on the opposite side.

This Tang army was also wearing red cloaks. Although there were only 300 people, they brought a lot of horses and equipment.

Jin Zai's eyes immediately became hot.

Although Silla's army was modeled after the Tang army, due to the lack of iron in Silla, the weapons were far behind the Tang army.

The soldiers were all wearing half-length leather armor, and their weapon was only a spear. There were only a few Tang knives equipped by the elite, and Silla's Tang knives were far less durable than Tang knives.

Seeing the heavily armed Tang army on the opposite side, Jin Zai couldn't help but licked his lips. If he could eat this Tang army, wouldn't this batch of weapons and equipment be in the hands of our army?

Hearing that there are still Tang Dynasty military weapons that have not been taken away in the Anton Governor's Mansion, Jin Zai's ambitions surged at the thought of this place.

Jin Zai shouted in his heart: "This land was originally our Goguryeo's land! It was just occupied by the shameless Tang army!"

Jin Zai is a supporter of Goguryeoism and advocates "restoring the homeland of Goguryeo".

In his view, Datang, which has invaded the "hometown of Goguryeo", is an evil enemy, and the Tang Dynasty must be defeated in order to give them more "living space" for the "successors of Goguryeo".

"Camp out! Formation!"

Jin Zai gave an order, and the Silla soldiers also completed their assembly, and the two armies faced each other across the Yalu River.

At this time, the Yalu River has already frozen over, and you only need to step on the river to get to the opposite position.

Jin Zai had already set up a battle formation, and the archers aimed at the center of the frozen river. Whoever attacked first at this time would be the loser.

Jin Zai stood still, he was going to kill the morale with the opponent first, and wait until the Tang army was exhausted before attacking.

But what surprised Jin Zai was that some Tang troops began to clear the snow, as if they were going to set up some kind of camp on the river bank.

Another part of the soldiers actually started laying non-slip straw on the frozen river surface. Is this preparing to cross the river?

Jin Zai was amused by the arrogance of the Tang army. Three hundred Tang troops dared to cross the river to attack the two thousand Silla elites who were waiting for work?

No matter how arrogant the commander on the other side is, this is too much!

Didn't the commanders of the Tang army have read military books, didn't they know that the halfway crossing is the most dangerous time for the army?

Impossible, military books are all written by Han people, how could they not understand these principles!
This is simply tantamount to not seeing the people of Silla in their eyes!
Although Jin Zai was angry, he quickly smiled.

Since Tang Jun is looking for death, then let them be fulfilled. All he needs to do is pull away from the camp and wait for Tang Jun to throw himself into the trap.

This also avoids the accident of crossing the river.

Jin Zai ordered the soldiers to gather and prepare to beat the enemy when the Tang army landed.

In order to lure the Tang army to cross the river, Jin Zai also specially ordered the archers to put away their bows and arrows, not to attack the Tang army when the Tang army was laying straw, and to shoot arrows when the Tang army crossed the river.

Holding the binoculars, Pang Ju smiled when he saw that these Silla sticks had indeed been tricked.

"What about the artillery?"

The adjutant immediately said: "The artillery has been deployed and the angle is being adjusted."

Pang Ju came out this time, but he brought four cannons with him.

This artillery is also equipped with the most advanced grenade, which is the shell demonstrated in the last Wuwei military exercise.

This kind of grenade is filled with gunpowder in the center, and the explosive power can smash the city wall, and the lethality to the soldiers is even more terrifying. The burst shrapnel can turn into a metal death storm, strangling the soldiers within the explosion range.

"Let the gunners pay attention to where they land, and don't kill too many people. If you kill all these Silla people, let the artillery company go to repair the dock!"

The adjutant immediately conveyed the order, and the engineers who laid the straw had already laid the anti-skid road to the center of the Yalu River.

An Shougui sighed, although he didn't want to start a war with Tang Jun, but the opponent took the initiative to attack, so he couldn't help himself to fight back.

The commander on the opposite side was too reckless, and even crossed the river directly to attack.

If the Tang people stick to Daxing City, An Shougui can still persuade the soldiers to come back and build the city.

If the three hundred Tang troops were wiped out now, then Silla and Datang would have no room to maneuver.

An Shougui sighed, did Datang really decline?The Anton Protectorate actually sent such a clumsy and arrogant general?
Seeing that the non-slip straw was about to be laid on the opposite bank, Pang Ju led the soldiers to start walking towards the ice.

While walking, Pang Ju exhorted: "After the artillery fires, we will rush to the shore immediately. The main goal of this battle is to capture prisoners!"

"This Xinluo stick is sent to the door to be a coolie. We can't be polite. We must bring back all the remnants!"

"It's best for the enemy officer to be captured alive. If you meet someone who resists to the death, you don't need to shoot him. Do you understand?"

"Understood!"

Pang Ju nodded and looked at the eager players. This was the first large-scale battle after implementing the big roundabout strategy. The generals and players who had been holding back in Tongliao City for a long time were about to kill the bandits near Tongliao City. And the beasts have dug their roots.

"Cross the river!"

Pang Ju gave an order, and the players began to step on the ice, thinking about marching across.

Seeing that Tang Jun really stepped on the ice, Jin Zai was ecstatic. He immediately ordered the soldiers of the former army to prepare by the riverside. As soon as Tang Jun landed, he would attack with long spears, and then cooperate with archers to shoot a volley. It is estimated that more than half of Tang Jun could be killed. .

Just after Jin Zai let the former army come to the shore, the artillery in the Tang army camp also received the order to fire.

"emission!"

In order to reduce the damage, special grenades with reduced gunpowder were used.

But the loud noise from the salvo of the four cannons still echoed on the empty snow field.

Jin Zai's mount screamed in fright, and threw Jin Zai to the ground. The commander of the Xinluo Army became the first injured in this battle.

Jin Zai stood up with support, and he saw a terrifying scene.

Four fireballs exploded around the Xinluo army, and the metal storm swept the entire army, and the soldiers howled in pain.

The soldiers at the center of the explosion were directly turned into hedgehogs by the shrapnel storm. Some unlucky soldiers were cut to the core by the shrapnel and fell down without crying out.

And the soldiers on the edge of the explosion were not lucky, their leather armor could not protect their bodies at all, and their bodies were covered with wounds from the shrapnel.

The soldiers who were not affected were so frightened that they put down their weapons and cried with their heads in their arms when they saw such a horrible scene.

The soldiers who were ambushing on the shore were also frightened. In order to prevent the shrapnel from destroying the ice, none of the four shells chose the front army as the target.

But hearing the terrible explosion and seeing the fireball rising behind them, these soldiers also put down their weapons and fell to their knees.

They completely forgot about their mission, and the player pioneers like tigers and wolves easily landed on the other side.

"kill!"

The moment the shouts of killing sounded, this asymmetrical war was over.
