Datang first village

Tools are not invincible, but spirit is invincible.

Just like what Li Yuanxing said to Wu Bin, what is really precious about the Hundred Blades of Qin Palace is not the one hundred steel knives, but the owner of these one hundred knives.

In the face of powerful tools, an army with extremely high will can also fight.

However, each generation has an absolute value.

In the face of absolute power, the will must also give way to tools.

Ulchi Moondeok, one of the best generals of Goguryeo in the seventh century AD, his loyalty is definitely the strongest, and there is no one.His troops are also the most elite troops in Goguryeo, possessing the best equipment, the most intense training, and the highest loyalty among all the legions in Goguryeo.

Niu Jinda stood at a distance of about 250 steps in front of the city wall, and signaled the guards with heavy shields beside him to retreat.

"Command, Godfire Flying Crow!"

What's that on the shelf?Ulji Wendeok didn't know, he turned his head and looked at the two huge, hundred-foot-long flying boats in suspense in the air, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. Datang might have only used a little to deal with his city. He believes that the huge flying boat has more and more terrifying attack methods.

Such fetishes cannot be made just to look good.

Suddenly, Ulji Wendeok's eyes changed: "Send the message, all the bed crossbows are ready, raise the crossbows. Spearmen are ready, heavy shield soldiers are ready!"

Niu Jinda looked at the Goguryeo army whose morale was still high at the city gate, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes: "Send the message, Feiyan fires one hundred. After Feiyan fires, we will release the flying crows!"

Li Yuan, who was sitting on the Weiyuan, nodded seriously: "Goguryeo was able to defeat the former Sui three times, and it is definitely not an ordinary person. Thinking about the Daqin crossbow array, even if I encounter it, I will be a little caught off guard. Eulji Wende This man is terrible, six thousand soldiers were lost in a few breaths, but the morale of the rest of the soldiers is still high, this man is a good general!"

"Hmph!" Li Yuanxing snorted coldly.

"Don't Goro think this person is a good general?"

"It doesn't matter whether he is right or not. There are countless good generals in my Great Tang. Even if he surrendered to our Great Tang, it may not be necessary to talk about him if he is lined up at the gate of General Tiance's mansion. His soldiers are good. But he can't serve our Great Tang Therefore, whether it is the father's praise or approval, it may be a pity that he will not live!"

What Li Yuanxing said was the truth, Li Yuan not only did not refute it, but supported it very much.

Ulji Mundeok is considered an excellent general, but he is not yet a hero, and there is no need to pity him.

Li Yuanxing said again: "Father, he is an elite soldier in Goguryeo, isn't it true that our soldiers in the Tang Dynasty are not elite? In terms of morale, the soldiers of the Great Tang Dynasty are not weaker than them."

Li Yuan nodded again.

The attack in front of the city has already started, Feiyanhuo is considered a toy in modern times.The principle is the same as the sky-changing monkey in the fireworks many years ago, but it is bigger.A small bamboo tube was added to the front and filled with kerosene.

The main body is one foot and five feet long, plus the tail balance and the balance wings on both sides, it is only three feet long.

On the wooden frame, 24 sticks are placed in a frame, and all of them are released at one time of ignition. This is a Feihuoyan.

One hundred flying fire swallows equals [-] attacks.

The cost of a Feihuoyan, plus the kerosene in front, is tens of pennies.The cost of releasing a hundred of them is not comparable to the cost of a Vulcan flying crow, but the lethality is another matter.

"put!"

Following Niu Jinda's order, more than 2000 Flying Fire Swallows with very common surnames flew all over the sky, but finally all of them landed on the walls of Anshi City, or inside the city.

Faced with this strange attack that flew around but couldn't kill anyone, Eulji Wende was confused, whether it was Tang Jun's failure or other reasons.

Just as he was in a daze, ten giant bamboo-wood monster birds with one-foot-wide wings flew towards Anshi City. Their speed was so fast that many soldiers couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Bed crossbow, shoot that strange bird!" Ulji Wende yelled.

This is ancient times, not modern times.There is no efficient communication tool, it all depends on people shouting.

When the messenger passed down the order, the bed crossbowman was ready when he heard the order, but only the four bed crossbows on both sides of Ulji Mundeok were fired, three of them were shot in the air, and one shot was on the flying crow.The flying crow deviated from the direction and exploded on the suspension bridge of the moat, and the raging fire burned.

"Prepare to put out the fire!" Ulji Moondeok ordered loudly, and countless orderlies also shouted.

Li Yuanxing, who was sitting on the Weiyuan, said calmly at this moment: "I hope they don't use water to put out the fire!"

"Goro was wrong. Some Goguryeo soldiers have already put buckets on them."

Li Yuanxing shook his head lightly.

The crow is filled with oil, and some phosphorus has also seeped into it. Putting out the fire with water is really a dead end.

The fire started, and the [-]-foot-long city wall ignited a raging fire. Countless Goguryeo soldiers screamed and jumped down the city with flames all over their bodies. Someone was pouring water, but the water seemed to make the fire bigger up.

Ulji Wende covered his chest and gritted his teeth fiercely: "Prepare for a civil war in the city!"

Niu Jinda knew very well how terrifying the divine fire and flying crows were, how many people were burned to death on the city wall, and only sand could be used to extinguish the fire.But now is not the time for kindness, or sympathy.

"Heavy artillery, No. 1 and No. [-] bombed the city gate. No. [-] and No. [-] bombed the inner piles of the suspension bridge. The Daqin crossbow formation, [-] people are ready. The auxiliary soldiers are ready to fill the river, and the building vehicles and siege vehicles are moving forward!"

Now it was a large-scale siege, with [-] auxiliary soldiers rushing forward with carts and sandbags on their shoulders.

With [-] strong crossbowmen in the formation, Niu Jinda is not afraid of anything. Even if you put out the fire on the city wall, another round of strong crossbowmen will ensure enough time to fill up the moat.What's more, if the city gate is blown open and the suspension bridge is lowered, the soldiers rushing past will not let the Goguryeo people have a chance to go up the city wall again.

As for the civil war in the city, it can no longer be regarded as a fierce battle.

In the air, Li Yuanxing ordered: "Send a message, the Weiyuan is ready to speed up, and the target is Jian'an City!"

The flying boat left, and Ulji Wende felt endless despair for the first time.The Tang army took down the city wall of his own city without any effort. He believed that the civil war in the city would only increase the casualties of the Tang army, and that the Tang army must have more and more terrifying means.

With just that strong crossbow formation, he was helpless.

It doesn't matter who is sitting on the huge flying boat in the sky.Leaving at this time only means that the battle situation has been decided.

Unwilling to reconcile, Ulchi Wendeok ordered loudly after turning around a few times: "Set fire to the whole city, burn the granaries, and prepare to leave the city to break through."

Sitting on the flying boat, Li Yuanxing saw the actions in the city and asked, "Wu Bin, the Goguryeo people are going to burn the city to break through. Do you think this king should leave like this at this time, or remind General Niu!"

"Wu Bin dare not, Wu Bin is guilty!"

"I'm not blaming you, I'm just asking, and I helped General Niu at this time. As you said, the glory of the soldier!"

Wu Bin made a one-knee salute: "Your Highness, General Mo thinks it's time to remind that Ulji Wende's escape will inevitably affect Li Shangshu's overall layout, and General Mo will observe the formation of General Niu's siege. Germany's breakout to the north will inevitably result in the death of at least [-] soldiers."

"Have a good eye, order the Zhenyuan to seal off the escape route from Beicheng, and then tell Niu Jinda."

It would be really stupid to leave a powerful war machine unused, face is almost enough.At least Li Yuanxing thinks so, Wu Bin is not a rigid person, when the war is critical, victory is more important than face, and the lives of soldiers are even more important than face.

The Weiyuan kept its course, and the Zhenyuan moved to the north of Anshi City.

With just this one action, Niu Jinda knew that there might be changes in the city.

After all, the speed of the flying boat was faster than the reaction of Niu Jinda's subordinates. Before Niu Jinda gave the order, a loud voice came from the air: "General Niu, the enemy is going to set fire to the city and then break out. There are heavy troops gathered in the northern city. To avoid hurting His Highness Order to seal Beicheng!"

Sealed North City?

With Niu Jinda's dazed effort, the door of Zhenyuan's cabin was fully opened, and no one was used to drop bombs accurately.It's like a rainstorm, one after another, the whole vehicle will pour the lit bamboo tubes down.

Fireballs like raindrops instantly surrounded all the barracks and blocks in the four cities north of Anshi City by a sea of ​​flames.

"General Niu, farewell!" Wu Bin shouted again in the air.

Niu Jinda shook his head with a wry smile. He knew that if His Royal Highness King Qin really did it himself, Anshi City would be nothing to worry about.Pyongyang City is the capital of Goguryeo, and it can all fall in one morning, let alone Anshi City.This is just a chance for his infantry and cavalry to train.

"Send an order to break through the city gate, and stop the attack inside the city gate. Release the air cavalry for reconnaissance."

Air riding is a hang gliding wing. Niu Jinda thought it was necessary for him to observe Anshicheng from above, and then re-formulate the attack plan, so as to ensure a complete victory.

"Your Highness, Anshicheng will be fully controlled within three days." Lu Maofeng was also talking to Li Yuanxing beside him.

Three days later, Li Yuanxing nodded, this time is still normal.

Control is different from destroying a city. It is easy to destroy a city, but it is not easy to control the whole city.It is impossible to kill all the people in the city. Those who surrender must be allowed, and ordinary people must be suppressed and appeased.And there must be some Goguryeo soldiers who took off their military uniforms and fled to the homes of ordinary people to hide.

The most difficult thing is that Ulji Mundeok can't escape, and he will definitely fight to the death.

The last battle in Anshi City was the street fighting in the city.

"After replenishing the coal in Jian'an City, rest for a whole day. Go to see if Wunvshan City has been taken tomorrow. The south of Anshi City goes all the way to Beisha City. It is best to persuade them to surrender. These places are already our Datang, less Destruction, otherwise it will cost money to rebuild in the future." When Li Yuanxing spoke, his eyes no longer paid attention to Anshicheng.

Li Yuanxing spoke without saying a word, but Lu Maofeng just nodded stupidly, but a clerk took down Li Yuanxing's words. (To be continued.)
