He Chongdao has confirmed that this is Duan Jianwei's conspiracy, but he has already been mentally prepared, he plans to take advantage of the opportunity of this raid to win, unify the plan, so as to greatly expand his power, as long as all the departments of the planing land can be unified by him, what is Nanzhao afraid of.

"Tell you the truth, the king! These words just now were told to me by Duan Jianwei himself, and I also believed it. ”
Fu Chongdao obviously wanted to make the death of the king more clear.
King Gui was stunned for a moment, looked at Fu Chongdao, and grinned: "I understand, I understand, it turns out that Nanzhao deliberately provoked it, and Pi Luo Ge used his two daughters to let us kill each other." ”
"Yes! I also know that I have been tricked, but as long as I destroy you, there will be no one in the land of Liangjiao against me, and when the time comes, I will control 350,000 horses, so why not be afraid of Nanzhao. ”
Fu Chongdao's face was proud, and he didn't seem to take Nanzhao to heart.
"Fu Chongdao, don't be too complacent, your end may not be better than mine, Pi Luo Ge is ruthless, even his own daughter is willing to sacrifice, how can you be his opponent."
King Guigui glared at Chongdao angrily.
"Don't talk this nonsense about the dying people, who will kill the deer, you can't see it, or go on the road with peace of mind!"
Chongdao looked disdainful.
"Ghost master, I didn't find the guard, and Princess Nanzhao was not there."
"Ghost master, all the people in the house have fled."
Several soldiers ran over to report.
Fu Chongdao was furious, took out the long knife at his waist, put it on the neck of King Guigui, and asked, "King Guigui, where is your family?" Where are they hiding? ”
"Hahaha! Chongdao child, you don't have to waste your time, my son has already left the city, he will lead the army to avenge me, you just wait for death! Hum! ”
The King of Returning was furious.
"It's you who damn it, go die!"
He couldn't bear it anymore, brandished a long knife, and killed the king.
Looking at the head of King Gui and rolling down to the ground, Fu Chongdao kicked it far away with hatred, and gritted his teeth and cursed a few words.
"Ghost master, the entire city has been searched, but I can't find the people who are guarding the corner, and Princess Nanzhao has no clues."
"Ghost lord, there is no family in the city, it seems that they have escaped from the city."
Fu Chongdao was furious: "It's impossible, this is impossible, they are holding a wedding, and the outside of the city has been surrounded by our army, and the city gates have all been blocked, how can they escape from the city, they must still be in the city." ”
At this moment, the king of the king of the plan is quite nervous, his original plan is to once and for all the forces of the king of the king to exterminate, so as to stabilize his position, unexpectedly, the son of the king
The escape of Shouyu and Ah Yi was not expected by Chongdao in advance, which somewhat made him angry.
"Ghost Lord, a secret passage has been found in the direction of the east city wall."
"There is a secret passage in the eastern city wall?"
Chongdao was shocked, and hurriedly led the elite soldiers and horses straight to the east city wall, and entered the secret passage, and went out of the city from the secret passage.
"Ghost master, there are 6,000 soldiers and horses in the east ten miles, and they are the main force of King Guigui, and Shouyu and Ah Ji must have fled there."
"Ghost master, the soldiers are fast, our army should march immediately!"
Fu Chongdao nodded and ordered: "The whole army will march immediately and kill the guard." ”
After leaving 3,000 soldiers and horses to garrison the city, Fu Chongdao led the main force of soldiers and horses to kill the camp of King Fu Gui to the east, preparing to kill the Fu Shouyu and others who fled there.
Just when Chongdao killed the king, the son of Chongdao, Fu Chao, also used conspiracy and trickery to open the gate of Queensland, and killed the father and son of Cunjin in one fell swoop, and took over Queensland City.
Fu Chao was much luckier than his father, he not only succeeded in killing Fu Rijin's father and son, so that Ji Rijin's family was wiped out, but at the same time, he also got the spoils of war Princess Nanzhao.
Fu Chao, who has admired Princess Nanzhao for a long time, was moved by Princess Nanzhao's appearance at a glance, and stayed in the mansion that night, and did Princess Nanzhao, and told Princess Nanzhao domineeringly that he should be her husband, and the stupid son of Fu Rijin is not qualified to compete with him at all.
On a small hill five miles outside the city of Queensland, Duan Jianwei looked at the city in the distance with joyful eyes, what happened that night was that nature was all under his control, as he expected, Jiao Chongdao really attacked the king and Jianrijin, and the speed of the attack was very fast, and the means were extremely ruthless, and this was exactly what he needed.
"Mr. Duan, the flying pigeon in the direction of Nanning Prefecture is transmitted."
One of his subordinates handed a small note into Duan Jianwei's hand and slowly retreated.
"Fu Chongdao broke through Nanning Prefecture, the king of Fu Gui was killed, and the family fled from Nanning Prefecture, went to the military camp in the east of the city to take refuge, and built a fortress to protect themselves, okay, it's really good, it's even more perfect than I expected, haha!"
Duan Jianwei read the flying pigeon biography from the direction of Nanning Prefecture, and his heart was very happy.
"Congratulations to Mr. Duan, you're done."
A burly middle-aged man strode over.
"Haha! The eldest prince has won the award, this is just the beginning, is it still too early to finish? ”
Duan Jianwei humbly said.
This burly middle-aged man is the prince of Nanzhao, Ge Luofeng, who was ordered to lead 20,000 troops to garrison the border of Nanzhao, but the army has its own veteran management, he led a small number of elite guards, Weifu went to Queensland City, ready to investigate the customs of the land, so that after inheriting the throne of Nanzhao in the future, he has enough understanding of the land.
Ge Luofeng smiled lightly and looked at Duan Jianwei: "Or Mr. Duan is too modest, in Xiao Wang's opinion, under Mr. Wang's strategy, the land will soon be included in the land of my Nanzhao, Xiao Wang is waiting for this day?" ”
"Hahaha, borrowing the auspicious words of the eldest prince, I will definitely work hard in the future."
Duan Jianwei smiled, stood on the top of the mountain, and talked with Ge Luofeng about the situation in the land and how to deal with the situation in the land, so as to be the most beneficial to Nanzhao.
Although Ge Luofeng is not Pi Luoge's biological son, his eloquence is roughly similar to Pi Luoge, that is to say, only Ge Luofeng inherits the throne of Nanzhao, and Nanzhao can embark on a more prosperous and powerful road.
As Duan Jianwei, who has a strong sense of patriotism and practical interests, naturally strongly hopes that Nanzhao will become stronger and stronger, for this reason, he spared no effort to support Ge Luofeng, this time he was ordered to go through the planing land, and also strongly recommended Ge Luofeng to lead the troops to the border of the planing land, so as to give Ge Luofeng the opportunity to perform, and then establish greater prestige, and prepare for the future accession to the throne.
For Duan Jianwei's support, Ge Luofeng is naturally well aware, and he has long promised that as long as he ascends the throne as king, the Duan family will be the first nobleman of Nanzhao, and Duan Jianwei will also be promoted to Qingping official and be responsible for the core affairs of the Nanzhao Kingdom.
In other words, the Duan family represented by Duan Jianwei has formed an alliance with Ge Luofeng, and the two sides have common interests, and they must only huddle together to deal with various threats and ensure that Nanzhao's future will become stronger and stronger.
###
Luzhou direction.
Early in the morning, the soldiers and horses of the Pingnan Army in Hulu Valley were fully prepared for battle, and according to Li An's plan, on this day, the largest invincible bandit group in Luzhou would be exterminated.
Although the invincible lair is easy to defend and difficult to attack, Ang Lee has asked craftsmen to make a variety of siege weapons, and Ang Lee is not completely sure how powerful these equipment is, and only through the test of actual combat can detailed data be obtained.
"General, the whole army has been assembled and can set off at any time."
The ministry will report loudly.
Li An nodded and ordered: "The whole army of the Pingnan Army is dispatched and marches towards the bandits' lair. ”
"Yes, General."
The general received the order and immediately issued a military order.
More than 3,500 officers and men of the Pingnan Army slowly left the gourd valley and marched along the rugged mountain road to the invincible lair.
At the head of the line were the cavalry and reconnaissance teams of the special regiment, in the middle were the eight main regiments, and at the back were the siege teams and baggage regiments of the special regiments.
Ang Lee and most of the generals walked at the back to press the formation, and from time to time adjusted the speed of the team's march according to the actual situation to prevent the forwards from moving too fast and making the whole team too loose.
The siege equipment equipped by the siege team is relatively heavy, for this reason, the siege team is also equipped with a large number of baggage vehicles, responsible for transporting these equipment, the transport team of course also helps to transport some, in addition, the task of the transport team is more heavy, in addition to transporting the heavy siege equipment required by the siege team, it is also responsible for transporting various weapons and armor, as well as consumable military products such as arrows, and the baggage cart of the medical team is placed with items such as medicinal materials and stretchers.
The team marched without hurry, arriving at the invincible lair before noon, and adjusted their formation to prepare for a strong attack.
This is the first offensive operation since the establishment of the Pingnan Army, and the solidity of the opponent's defense is also very powerful, which is very effective in testing the combat will of the Pingnan Army, and it can also be a good test of how powerful several siege equipment are.
The soldiers of the siege team were assembling heavy siege equipment at an accelerated pace, and the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd regiments of the battle were close behind, protecting the soldiers of the siege team from suddenly rushing out.
The cavalry team and the reconnaissance team are responsible for pressing the formation and waiting for military orders at any time.
The soldiers of the Pingnan Army, who were under black pressure outside the city, were making the final preparations to attack the cottage, which made the bandits guarding the cottage very nervous.
He was invincible and worried about his subordinates, so he personally ran to the front to supervise the battle, preparing to fight to the end with the Pingnan army.
"Big ghost master, look, the Pingnan army is preparing to attack the cottage, that big black guy should be a catapult, and there are a lot of little guys behind."
"Big ghost master, can we keep the cottage?"
The invincible was furious and scolded: "No matter how much you shake the hearts of the army, you will be killed, and I will defend them, and no one is allowed to retreat, as long as the stockade is breached, we all have to die." ”
"Yes, Great Ghost Master."
The bandits had already learned Li An's methods, so they naturally did not dare to slack off.
The bandits are outlaws, but they do not have advanced combat equipment and combat theories, and all they have is a brave and ruthless temperament, which can be used against ordinary civilians, but if they face a well-trained regular army, they are powerless.
At least, at this moment, they can only wait for the Pingnan Army to attack, and they dare not take the initiative to attack and impact the Pingnan Army's military formation, because they know that as long as they rush out, it will inevitably be a dead end, and it is their only choice to hold on with the help of favorable terrain.
The soldiers of the siege team of the special regiment moved very quickly, and the siege equipment on the position was quickly assembled, ten heavy catapults, twenty bed crossbows, five large siege vehicles, all assembled in place, in addition, there were a large number of giant shields and siege ladders.
The catapult is an improved catapult modified under the guidance of Ang Lee, the accuracy of projection is greatly increased, and the bed crossbow is a sharp weapon that Ang Lee has tried many times and finally succeeded in the craftsman according to the impression of later generations, a large siege vehicle, is a folding ladder, with a platform and six wheels at the bottom, after pushing under the city wall, just unfold the folding ladder, you can let the soldiers climb up along this half of the ladder until they reach the city wall.
The Pingnan army was ready to attack at any time, and the bandits on the wall were still watching curiously, none of them had seen the power of bed crossbows and catapults, thinking that beyond twice the range of bows and arrows, they would not pose a threat to their lives.
Their thinking is obviously very wrong, and they have to pay the price of blood for this mistake.
Li An glanced at the walled wall of the cottage with disdain, stretched out his hand and waved it lightly, and ordered: "Start attacking the city." ”
"Prepare for the siege."
As the military order was gradually issued, ten heavy catapults and twenty bed crossbows opened fire at the same time, shooting boulders and arrows at the bandits on the wall.
The sudden blow caught the bandits on the walled wall by surprise, and at least dozens of bandits were killed on the spot, and as the Pingnan army's offensive continued, many more bandits lost their lives.
This first round of long-range attacks made the bandits scurry back and forth on the wall, the scene was chaotic, and the cries and scolding were intertwined, even if the invincible scolding himself, he couldn't stop drinking.
Li An was not in a hurry to let his soldiers attack, and he could better preserve himself by destroying the enemy with long-range weapons first.
"Command, the giant shield and the bow and crossbow forward."
Ang Lee gave the military order again.
Suddenly, the soldiers of the first regiment, a group of five, two spears were responsible for raising their shields to charge forward, and the archers and crossbowmen quietly followed behind, preparing to launch bows and crossbows at the bandits after entering the firing range.
"General, didn't you say that I should be the vanguard? How to let the first regiment go first. ”
Nan Jiyun complained to Li An with a dissatisfied face.
Li An smiled lightly and said loudly: "Nan Jiyun, immediately let your people change into plate armor and prepare to attack." (To be continued.) )
