Ji Tang

Chapter 1217

Chapter 619 Caught off guard!
In the blink of an eye, a month passed while the two sides were attacking and defending each other.

This month has been extremely brutal, and I don't know what the other party is worried about. The intensity of the siege every day is extremely fierce, but if it is said that it is desperate, it always feels like there is room for cannibalism.

What surprised Cheng Yaojin and others even more was that from the beginning, the cannibals suffered thousands of casualties, and now they have suffered more than a thousand casualties every day. The cannibals' battlefield adaptability and learning ability are astonishing.

In contrast, Datang's casualties were also decreasing, with an average of about [-] casualties per day, which seemed like half a pound, but you must know that they were defending the city.

One to two casualties, this is simply a joke in the Central Plains!

It's not that the Tang army was not brave in fighting, but the cannibals were simply too crazy in their fighting, often exchanging lives for lives.In addition, the opponent became more and more proficient in using catapults, and finally formed a precise strike. Once the Tang army attacked the city too fiercely, they immediately began to throw stones at the city regardless of their own casualties.

Even if the Tang army was wearing armor, they still suffered heavy casualties. On the highest day, they caused 2000 casualties, and even Guo Xiaoke was almost killed.

In the end, they had no choice but to form a stalemate with the cannibals. In this way, you hit me, and I hit you, and the big cannibals didn't dare to act recklessly. Once the big cannibals retreated from the city, they immediately evaded, and then the number of people decreased. casualties.

But one month later, the casualties of 5000 people almost made Cheng Yaojin angry.

To him, this was a shame. With the city being defended like this, he wanted to wipe his neck!
Today, the Great Eater began to attack the city again. Just when he thought it was the same as usual, he saw the opponent suddenly dispatched 5 troops, sometimes divided into three groups. The first group came towards Guancheng without any hesitation. .

At the same time, the projection vehicles also began to show their power, and the Tang army was unable to raise its head at the top of the city.

But as soon as the stone rain passed, the two armies began to fight, but as soon as the servants fought, Cheng Yaojin realized that something was wrong. Especially when he saw the fanaticism in the eyes of the big cannibal who was attacking the city, he was immediately shocked!
"No, the enemy is really coming."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a cry of killing coming from the bottom of the city. It turned out that the second part of the big point did not care about the situation at the top of the city and attacked the city step by step.This is not over yet, the third enemy army has also begun to prepare.

Looking at the dense siege army, Cheng Yaojin's heart trembled.

"Quickly, go tell Guo Xiaoke and hold on for me!"

He gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I die, I have to survive this round of attacks!"

"Send the order and kill me hard!"
-
pat!

Ji Song, who was chatting with Heping Yang, suddenly felt something was wrong. Today's killing cries were particularly loud, with more than double the number of people than in the past. The frequency of sieges was also extremely frequent, and the use of catapults was also different from the past.

Suddenly, he thought of something, dropped the teacup in his hand, and his expression changed drastically.

"Come on!"

Pingyang was stunned and said quickly: "What's wrong with you?"

Ji Song shook his head, pointed to the outside of the city and said, "Listen, I'm afraid there's going to be a big war today, the cannibal is going crazy!"

Just as they were talking, Liu Laoer entered the small courtyard.

Ji Song didn't waste any time and said directly: "Go quickly to support the city and bring the heavy-armored infantry camp. Also, tell Duke Lu that he can do whatever he wants. I will be with you in everything behind, so nothing big will happen."

"But...your safety"

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. It'll be too late!"

"My safety is in danger. As long as the city is not broken, nothing will happen to me. If the city is broken, what's the use of keeping them? Go quickly!"

"promise!"

Liu Laoer seemed to sense the anxiety in the head of the family, and he no longer dared to talk nonsense, and immediately led the [-] heavy armored battalion towards the city.

The heavy armor battalion is a brave man selected from the 8000 people who selected martial arts from all over the world. Everyone wears a Mo Dao.Full body armor with a mask, like a giant steel beast.

The function of this battalion is to break the front and provide absolute defense. He will not send it out unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Why? Why did the Great Eater suddenly start attacking Ximen Pass at all costs?"

"It's not right!"

Ji Song thought hard at this moment and couldn't figure out why the big cannibal was like this. This was obviously not in line with their past style. It was as if a gentle and elegant commander had been replaced by a high-spirited young commander. This was a change in combat style. The change is completely different from Seld's previous style, even completely opposite.

"Could it be that the opponent is short of food and cannot wait any longer? Do you want to capture the city gate quickly?" Pingyang said thoughtfully.

"impossible!"

He rejected it without thinking, which made Pingyang a little stunned!
"According to the information I received, the Great Eaters will not be short of food and grass at all in a short period of time. Not only does it have a large amount of food, but Henglus City and Yaoshashui Yixi also have food and grass for at least half a year. So food and grass are not a change in their fighting methods. The reason.”

Pingyang was stunned for a moment, then thought of something and stared at Ji Song, gritted his teeth and said: "Tell me, what else is your kid hiding from me? Why don't I know this information?"

"Eh? Don't you have a Baiqisi? I thought you knew!"

Ji Song secretly thought that it was bad. In order not to affect his family's morale, he didn't say anything about it at all.But I lost my temper just now and accidentally said it out loud. Judging from Pingyang's appearance, he was going to call an army to hold him accountable!
"Jisong!"

Pingyang's teeth were itching with hatred and his face was filled with frost. He said, "What else are you hiding from me? Are you going to tell me?"

Seeing this, Ji Song knew that he couldn't hide the matter, so he briefly said it, but it was better not to say it. After saying it, Pingyang's face turned pale.

"That means that this is not a sudden war at all, but has been planned for a long time? No matter how Datang avoids it, there will be a war between the two sides in the near future?"

"And Guo Xiaoke's request for help is just an advance of the war?"

Ji Song nodded helplessly, admitting it!

bang~
"Good good!"

"Okay!"

"This is thinking that Datang is a soft persimmon. What kind of gangster logic is this? He has taken away [-]% of the profits on the Silk Road. It's better now. Do you still think Datang is nosy?"

"Should we, the Tang Dynasty, remain content and let others take advantage of us?" "What a majestic person, what a shameless robber!"

Pingyang was almost going crazy. What kind of idea was this?As long as I continue to gain benefits from you, and you can't resist, you will completely fall out if you resist.

She was also someone who had seen strong winds and waves, but she was still left speechless by the other party's shamelessness!

"There are only so many benefits from the Silk Road. If we want to get more, we have to grab food from the other party. The reason why I suggested that Your Majesty go to sea before is to avoid direct conflict with the other party as much as possible. As long as the east-west trade channel is opened from the sea , although it is also grabbing food from the opponent, it will at least buy some time for Datang."

"There are millions of Han people in the Western Region at this time. As long as they survive for 20 years, they can withstand any storm without the need for support from the Central Plains. But I didn't expect that the opponent's nerves would be so sensitive. As soon as they made a breakthrough at sea, the opponent would not hesitate to proceed. Containment, this is the origin of the battle in the South China Sea!"

"What I didn't expect is that the other party has also been setting up in the Western Region for a long time. This may not be a coincidence. As the Tang Dynasty prospered, it continued to expand its sphere of influence and influence in the Western Region. This move may have made the other party uneasy! "

"Compared to the tyranny of Dashi, although Datang is not bad, it is much gentler than them. At least it will not destroy people's ancestral temples and destroy their beliefs at every turn."

"This allows the other party to see the threat of the Tang Dynasty. If things continue like this, will the Western Region be their back garden or the Tang Dynasty's?"

"The struggle for interests is represented by the ideology between the two civilizations. It is the root cause of this war. As the Tang Dynasty's influence in the Western Regions further increases, this war will be inevitable unless the other side is weakened and unable to fight against the Tang Dynasty. . Or the Tang Dynasty abandons the Western Regions, otherwise this war is just the beginning, unless one side falls completely."

Thinking about later generations, since the Tang Dynasty, the Western Regions were lost in the Central Plains for nearly a thousand years, and it was not returned to Chinese hands until Manqin. However, by that time, the Central Plains was unable to change the Islamicization of the Western Regions, and various ethnic groups and various forces were intertwined.If it hadn't been for that old man in the late Qing Dynasty, we might not have been able to wait for the founding of China before being divided.

Even in his time, the turmoil in this place never stopped.

The Tang Dynasty was the period when the Central Plains had the most concentrated control over the Western Regions. Dashi was established at almost the same time as the Tang Dynasty, and had not yet had time to penetrate the Western Regions.But as that system continues to expand its power, sooner or later it will affect the Western Regions.

This is not what he wants to see.

Ji Song smiled bitterly and said: "Auntie, do you think I am wrong? If I had not suggested that Your Majesty go to sea, there would not have been the previous naval battle in the South China Sea, and the cannibals would not have attacked the Western Regions so quickly. I."

"To shut up!"

Pingyang stood up and looked down at Ji Song, his face ashen as he said: "Jisong, what do you think of me, the Tang Dynasty? A coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong? What do you think of Mr. Gungun? What do you think of His Majesty?"

"Jisong, please remember that since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, we have not been afraid of any challenges. At the beginning, the heroes of the Central Plains were like this, the grassland overlord Jieli was like this, the Eastern Turks were like this, Tuguhun was like this, and now the great food thieves are like this."

"The Tang Dynasty has been established for decades, what kind of storms have we not seen? If we don't provoke the cannibals, won't we attack the Western Regions? As you said, it's just a delay!"

"I don't know if future generations can withstand it, so I don't dare to place hope on them. Now in the Tang Dynasty, there are wise monarchs, powerful troops that dominate the world, veterans who have survived hundreds of battles, and civil servants who have great plans. And there is a person like you who will shine brightly for eternity."

"What reason do we have to doubt whether we can win? In my opinion, victory is inevitable. With Your Majesty, all the gentlemen, and because of you, we will win!"

Glancing at Ji Song, Pingyang said angrily: "If you let me hear such remarks again, be careful, auntie, I will beat you up!"

Looking at the stunned Ji Song, she slapped the back of his head angrily and said, "What about you? Do you hear me?"

"I heard it, I heard it!"

After saying that, he looked at her warily: "You said you are not allowed to hit me on the head. If you hit me stupidly, you will have no place to cry if you lose this battle!"

"Okay, okay, why don't we stop fighting?"

Pingyang looked at the childish Ji Song with a bit of laughter, his heart was extremely soft.But at the same time, I was also relieved. Sometimes this kid is sentimental and likes to think about things that are there and not, but now it seems that he has come out!
Pingyang knelt down and came to Ji Song and said softly: "Ziyi, you have to be strong. My aunt believes in you, your majesty and the queen believe in you, Chengqian treats you as a brother, and Qingque, Ke'er. Even more. Duke Lu, Duke Zhai Yang and hundreds of thousands of soldiers all believe that you can lead them to defeat the enemy."

"What are you worried about? Worried about failure? No, Datang has never been afraid of failure. Now Datang's national power is getting stronger day by day, and now we can't see the end at all. With the high-yielding seeds you brought back, now The Tang Dynasty has too much food to eat."

She looked longingly and said: "What is this scene? So what about the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, what about the Wenjing rule? What about the Zhaoxuan rule, the Guangwu Zhongxing, and the Kaihuang rule? Compared with the current Tang Dynasty, what are they?"

"Which dynasty completely solved the people's food problem? And which dynasty could do as well as the Tang Dynasty?"

"Ziyi, just go ahead and do it, we all believe in you!"

Do we all believe you?

Ji Song felt a rush of heat rushing to his forehead. Yes, the Tang Dynasty now was no longer the Tang Dynasty he would know in future generations.Now Datang is a brand new empire. Its people have endless food, and its soldiers have the strongest armors, the sharpest swords, and endless new weapons.

What happened to Dashi?He's just a poor guy who was controlled by faith before!

Thinking of this, he suddenly raised his head and said with unprecedented seriousness: "You are right, Datang can afford to lose!"

"pity."

He caressed his legs and said with emotion: "If it was okay, there would be no chance for him to show off his power. I would have led my troops to fight them head-on."

Pingyang was speechless and felt so distressed that he wanted to cry.

Yes, if Ziyi's legs were good, with his ability, he wouldn't be frustrated and scheming here.A Ji Song who can personally visit the battlefield is beyond the imagination of the enemy.

God, how could you be so cruel?Is he really jealous of Yingcai?

After sighing with emotion, Ji Song regained his confidence. It doesn't matter if his leg is disabled, I will still beat your parents until they don't recognize you!
-
Just as he was talking, Liu Laoer finally led people to the city, but what he saw shocked him!
At this time, there were at least a thousand cannibals on the top of the city, trembling with Tang Jun. When he saw Cheng Yaojin with disheveled hair and his body covered in blood, his scalp went numb!

"Array!"

"kill!"

There was no nonsense at all, only long swords were like a forest. Tang Jun, who was fighting fiercely with the enemy, suddenly felt a burst of cold air. When he turned around, he was almost scared to death!

"Quick, get out of the way!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but after seeing a group of steel monsters behind them, they seemed to have thought of something terrible and reflexively moved aside to leave enough space for the opponent.

The Dashi soldiers suddenly felt that their eyes were empty. The city top that was full of enemies just now suddenly became empty.

Although I don’t know why, how could I let such a good opportunity pass?Just when he wanted to continue to expand his victory, he turned around and suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
