Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 220
"That's right, gather the remnant soldiers who have fled back, strengthen the defense, and defend the capital no matter what!" Da Qinmao, king of Bohai, trembled with his hands, showing the panic in his heart, but his tone was very firm.

There is no way, Shangjing must be defended no matter what, otherwise Bohai Kingdom will be ruined, and he, the king, will be ruined even more!
At this moment, King Bohai regretted so much, why did he impulsively send troops to attack Datang without holding back his anger.Only a few days after the troops were dispatched, the [-] army was defeated. Even the city of Gewuzhou in the Andong Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty was defeated before they could enter.

Shangquanyi is a waste, and Datang is too powerful. That person named Li Bai really didn't want to scare them from Bohai.

In order to defend the upper capital, the King of Bohai gathered the remnant soldiers who had fled back as much as possible, and organized the defenders in the upper capital to strengthen the defense. There were all kinds of people, and about 3 people defended the city.

Rumble ---
In the evening, facing the afterglow of the dusk, Li Fei led Anton's iron cavalry to the city of Shangjing.

"Your Majesty, Tang, the Tang Army is here!" Beside King Bohai, a minister pointed nervously at the Anton Iron Cavalry who had killed him.

Facing the afterglow of the setting sun, everyone in Anton Iron Cavalry was dressed in fish-scale armor and held a horse lance. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the sharp two blades shone with a different kind of cold light, giving people the appearance of a demon soldier killed in purgatory .

The King of Bohai also saw the arrival of Anton's cavalry, his pupils shrank, and he inevitably showed fear on his face again.

About 200 meters away from the upper capital, Li Fei reined in his horse, and behind him more than 8000 Anton cavalry also reined in his horse.The unified neighing of war horses crossed the city wall and spread throughout the upper capital, and all the people of Bohai Kingdom in the city knew that the Tang army was approaching the city.Fear spread not only in the heart of the king of Bohai, but also in the hearts of all the people of Bohai in Shangjing.

Li Fei's eyes were very sharp, and he saw the King of Bohai with his head sticking out of the city wall at a glance.

Although he had never met the King of Bohai and didn't know what the King of Bohai looked like, he knew his identity just by looking at the hat with the blue dragon embroidered on his head.The Bohai Kingdom claims to be a prosperous country in the east of the sea and respects the green dragon. Only the king has the right to wear clothes and accessories embroidered with green dragons.

"King of Bohai, you go down to the city and surrender immediately, or I will destroy your country of Bohai!" Li Fei yelled loudly, and immediately demanded that the King of Bohai leave the city and surrender.

"Kill!" Wu Sheng raised his horse at the right time and shouted.

"Kill! Kill—" Immediately, all Anton cavalry also raised their horses and shouted loudly, the sound of killing was loud.

On the city wall, the King of Bohai had learned the Chinese language of the Tang Dynasty. Of course he could understand what Li Fei was saying. After being hit by Anton's cavalry's murderous aura, he felt chills all over his body, his legs were weak, and his face was extremely pale. , The feeling of fear can't be suppressed, it's over, it's over, the Tang army is so powerful, I don't know if it can hold Shangjing in the end.

Although King Bohai was terrified, he was not that stupid and had no intention of going out of the city and surrendering at all.Because who knows if Tang Jun tricked him out of the city, what if Tang Jun took the opportunity to rush into the city as soon as the city gate opened.

"Master Anton Jiedu of the Tang Dynasty, this time it was my country of Bohai who made a mistake and did not dare to send troops to invade Datang. As long as Datang can stop its troops and not attack me in Shangjing, even if Datang puts forward conditions, my country of Bohai will definitely agree. "The king of Bohai begged for completeness.

Although all the Tang troops came were cavalry, it was not easy for the cavalry to attack the city, but who knows if there is a larger group of Tang army infantry behind, in order to keep the Bohai Kingdom and his own life, the King of Bohai has given in and has not continued at all The idea of ​​war with Datang.

Li Fei snorted coldly.

In fact, if Li Fei only wants the Bohai Kingdom to surrender, he has achieved his goal now. Even if his conditions are too high, as long as he does not attack Shangjing, the Bohai Kingdom will definitely be able to comply.

However, what Li Fei wanted was for the Bohai Kingdom to be completely discouraged, and to be afraid of Anton for a long time to come. Withdrawing troops under the city wall and negotiating conditions on the city wall will definitely not achieve the effect.

In fact, it's not that Li Fei never thought of taking the opportunity to directly destroy the Bohai Kingdom.

However, the idea of ​​destroying the Bohai country also passed in a flash, and in the end it was impossible to persist.

Probably because it is not that simple to destroy a country, it is not enough to capture their capital and capture their king, but also to wipe out their remnants, suppress their remnants, and educate them, etc., everything is energy.

Now is not the time. Not only does he have to continue to develop Anton, he also has to deal with Yang Guozhong or An Lushan's conspiracy, and prepare for the chaos that erupts in Anlushan's rebellion a year later. Where did he get the energy.

Li Fei sneered, of course he knew what the King of Bohai relied on, didn't it mean that all he brought were iron cavalry, and he didn't carry siege equipment, so it was not easy to attack the capital.It's a pity that he was already prepared!

Li Fei made preparations for this moment when he entered Bohai Kingdom from Gewuzhou City. He wanted to make Bohai Kingdom completely desperate without any chance of bargaining. Only in this way can the greatest deterrent effect be achieved.

"Prepare to attack the city!" Li Fei ordered with a cold face.

Immediately, the Anton Iron Knight soldiers under his command made preparations, inserted the horse into the pouch on the side of the horse, and replaced it with a god arm crossbow to aim at the defenders of the Bohai Kingdom above the city wall.At the same time, a war horse with two boxes on its back was pulled out, and it was the remaining 'Thunderbolt' used by Modaozhen.

Although the power of this original black powder iron-cased thunderbolt is not very good, if two full boxes explode together, there is still no problem in blowing open a wooden iron-clad city gate.

"My lord, the Tang army is about to start attacking the city. The city wall is dangerous, quickly withdraw the city wall!" The old official next to King Bohai saw the formation of the Tang army under the city, and immediately turned pale with shock.

"Hurry up, go down the city wall!" The king of Bohai panicked and wanted to go down to the city to escape tremblingly.

"Shoot!" Under the city wall, Li Fei waved his hand.

"Thum, thump, thump——" Anton's iron knight soldiers pulled the trigger of the god arm crossbow, and in the first wave, thousands of arrows formed a dense rain of arrows and flew up to the city wall of the capital.

On the city wall, the soldiers of Bohai State were so frightened that Tang Jun could shoot arrows from such a distance. Even if they stood on the city wall, they couldn't reach Tang Jun, and they couldn't even fight back.

Since he couldn't fight back, he could only dodge the arrows shot by Tang Jun.

The soldiers of the Bohai Kingdom lowered their heads one by one, or simply ran to the city to hide.They also thought that the Tang army was just cavalry anyway, and they didn't carry siege equipment, so they couldn't climb the city wall.

"Shhhhhhhhhhh-"

"Pfft! Pfft—" Although they were not slow to hide, some soldiers from the Bohai Kingdom were killed by arrows, and blood stained the walls of the city.
