Chapter 636: Attacking the City in Turns
"Chong, the girls of Goguryeo are all ours!"
"Kill, the men of Goguryeo will be taken back as slaves, and their cattle and sheep will run on our grasslands. ”
The commander and centurion who commanded the battle roared hoarsely, whether they could capture Marudu City or not was closely related to them, in addition to promotion, they naturally had to collect part of the property obtained by their command. Therefore, they are naturally extremely hardworking. Under the commander of the thousand, under the commander of the centurion, under the centurion, under the centurion, this layer of benefits is received, the commander of the thousand is naturally making a lot of money, both can be promoted and rich, these ruler-level generals, how can they not work hard.
This is also due to the city of Goguryeo, the city wall is not strong enough, not as good as the city wall of the Central Plains. Otherwise, with the 40,000 troops in the city, I am afraid that there is no 200,000 army and don't want to attack the city, otherwise it will only be a waste of effort. If he had relied on this strength to attack the cities of the Central Plains, it was estimated that he would have been killed and wounded long ago. This is also why Goguryeo only dared to grab some benefits in the border city of Youzhou and ran, not daring to go deeper, although the Central Plains is chaotic today, but the combat effectiveness of the soldiers can still not be underestimated. The elite troops of various states and counties can completely fight the alien crying father and mother. The Xiliang soldiers in Bingzhou, the Danyang soldiers in Xuzhou, the white horse Yicong in Youzhou, and the halberd soldiers in Jizhou, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, Jingzhou's naval army and so on. It can be said that before the Song Dynasty, even at the end of the dynasty, the soldiers were still full of combat power. Until the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the military system changed, in the late Song Dynasty, the late Yuan Dynasty, the late Ming Dynasty and the late Qing Dynasty, the soldiers began to be corrupt and decadent. Therefore, the Han Dynasty declined, but the residual power remained, which is the deterrence brought by the strong Han.
"Woooo
Obviously, for the battle of Marudu City, Goguryeo was completely prepared, of course, the power of the arrows was not great, even if the soldiers of Marudu were not wearing iron armor, few of them could be killed. Goguryeo's bows and arrows were completely self-made, a few of them were plundered from the Central Plains, and they certainly did not reach the hands of ordinary soldiers, and most of them were displayed by generals or nobles. The aliens don't have enough iron ore, or they have enough iron ore, but they don't have enough technology to mine ore and make good bows and arrows. It wasn't until after the Tang Dynasty that Tang Taizong Li Shimin, in order to show his identity as the Khan of the Heavens, passed on many technologies from the Central Plains, so that the skills of those alien races improved, but as a result, the strength of the alien races made the people of the Central Plains suffer countless sufferings. From this point of view, the evil created by Li Shimin and the disasters left behind by him cannot be eliminated by his merits.
There are plenty of bows and arrows in Marudu Castle, and there is no need to use the materials for defending the city such as rolling stones and sassal wood, compared to bows and arrows, things such as rolling stones and sassalwood are too cumbersome and heavy, so it is estimated that these materials will not come in handy until the bows and arrows are exhausted.
From time to time, there were also soldiers who carried the corpses of their compatriots who had been shot to death above, and climbed the ladder to attack upward. However, in the face of tens of thousands of troops in the city, when the troops were sufficient, the soldiers rushed to the head of the city, and they were pierced by countless spears, and finally fell down the ladder. Half an hour passed quickly, and hundreds of people were killed in the three rounds of siege operations, and more than 1,000 people were seriously injured, of course, the casualties on the Goguryeo side were not low, and they were basically evenly matched by one to one. For a siege, this is clearly a big win.
"Prepare the sons and daughters of Buyeo, it's time to let the friendly army know the bravery of my Buyeo soldiers!" Jian Qiutai, the prince of Buyeo, raised his arms and exhaled, his face full of spirit.
Among the surrounding alien races, Goguryeo is naturally the most powerful now, otherwise they would not have agreed to it when Goguryeo invited them to send troops to Youzhou, one of which is that they are afraid of Goguryeo's strength. As a country second only to Goguryeo, and its strength is gradually catching up with Goguryeo, it naturally has the idea of pulling Goguryeo down. When Goguryeo is destroyed this time, then they Buyeo will naturally be the strongest country in this area, and they are a little excited when they think about it. Maybe after he goes back this time, he will be able to secure his position as the heir, and if King Buyeo is happy, it is not impossible to directly let him serve as the heir. Although the alien races on the grassland talk about strength, they don't value the primogeniture system. However, if he has a name, at least he will have a greater advantage, and most of the generals and people below will support him, and a few people will oppose him, so what is he afraid of.
If he can take the lead in attacking Marudu City and plundering it, then Buyeo will definitely not suffer a loss this time, and he can also take the opportunity to strengthen his strength. When the Central Plains is even more chaotic, maybe Buyeo can still take the opportunity to attack the Central Plains and sit on the throne of the emperor of the Central Plains.
"General Wei Chide, it is up to you whether you can show the might of my Buyeo warriors next. Jian Qiutai said humbly to a middle-aged black-faced man beside him.
"Rest assured, the prince will not lose the prestige of my Buyeo warriors. ”
Wei Chide's face was straight, but his expression did not change in the slightest. So far, no one in the Yuchi family has been imprisoned by the Fuyu royal family for crimes, and most of the women in the Yuchi family are royal concubines, or the heirs; And this time Jianqiutai went on the expedition, the king of Fuyu arranged the general Yu Chide by his side, and it can be said that in the future, Yu Chide and Jianqiutai were tied together. With the help of the Wei Chi family, Jian Qiutai believed that his position as the heir was even more solid.
"Sons, prepare to attack, the first and second teams advance, the third and fourth teams prepare..."
Wei Chide's face was resolute, and his demeanor commanded calmly. Wei Chide is also a veteran in the army, so he can naturally see that it is not easy to take the pill capital, and of course it is not easy to explain to Jian Qiutai at this moment, so as not to shake the morale of the army. Therefore, it is not only necessary to show the bravery of the Buyeo soldiers now, but also to reduce his own casualties, which is also a big test for him.
"Fengxiao, what do you think of this battle?"
"My lord, Goguryeo is ready to work and is well prepared, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to take the pill capital city. If it goes on like this, it will probably take some time to take it. ”
In the rear, Yuan Chang and Guo Jia commented indifferently, as if they were not very optimistic about the siege of the city.
