Chapter 105: The Battle of Yanbian, Korea
This small battle was only the beginning of the Battle of Hercy.
In the intervening ten days, he also urged the following departments to take turns to attack the city.
The artillery of the two sides continued to come and go, and the Haixi city wall was originally a rammed earth city wall, and the height was not too high, and the wooden shed on it could not withstand the bombardment of the return.
Two or three notches were smashed.
But Jiao Li has been holding on to the city wall, and when the city head is broken, he immediately sends people to repair it.
And even if there are a few gaps, under the blow of a large number of firearms and firearms, no matter how many people come, they will not be able to rush in.
The fight between the two sides soon turned into a simple war of attrition.
The use of human life and the consumption of human life.
Slowly, the people below couldn't move.
First of all, they don't care about the casualties of the people below, but the leaders of the tribes below don't care about the casualties of their own department, this is their capital.
For the following slowdown in the frequency of attack, this is also known first.
It's just a matter of turning a blind eye.
For this result, if you also have to expect it first. He had already discovered that in order to break through Hercynian City, he had to have a large number of firearms.
In the siege and defense of the city, all siege equipment retreated behind firearms.
After losing confidence in the short-term breakthrough of Hercynian City. The first thought was placed elsewhere.
Liaodong Town guarded the border wall, more than 100,000 horses and horses were ready to fight, although most of them were foot soldiers, and they did not dare to fight rashly, but they had seen the solidity of Haixi City.
I didn't have the heart to attack the city of the Ming Dynasty.
And first for the battle of Haixi, it is a rehearsal for the battle of the Ming Dynasty.
If Haixi City is said to go down in one go, it is impossible to say that it will immediately wave troops to Liaodong and start a war with the Ming Dynasty. You don't need to ask for the last layer of skin.
But now Haixi City is still like this, and a series of Xiongcheng along the border has no hope of being captured first.
As for how to fight the Southern Dynasties, the price is also being weighed first.
It's just that after Yexian suddenly got a piece of information, his heart suddenly moved, and he said: "North Korea has gathered 30,000 troops in the six towns of Yanbian? I really don't know whether to live or die. ”
"Mr. Zhang," he also said to Zhang Zongzhou first, "Is there no news from the last time he sent someone to North Korea?" ”
Zhang Zongzhou's face was not very good.
All the siege equipment is his painstaking effort, but under a large number of firearms, no matter how many siege equipment there are, they cannot get close to the city wall for fifty steps. Once you get within fifty paces, you will be enveloped in countless firepower.
It's hard to move an inch.
After all, flesh and blood are hard to resist gunpowder.
The various defects of the musket artillery were perfectly offset by the presence of the city walls.
Even firearms are fired without the need for soldiers, even if a woman or child insists on it, it is enough to kill a soldier.
This new situation made Zhang Zongzhou extremely disappointed. But instead of blaming Zhang Zongzhou, he comforted him more and rewarded him constantly.
made Zhang Zongzhou feel even more sobpy, and he was loyal to him first, and he was willing to die for it.
Zhang Zongzhou recalled the intelligence on the North Korean side and said: "What the prince said is extremely true, the king of North Korea does not dare to offend the Southern Dynasty, nor does he dare to offend our dynasty. Prevaricating all the time. ”
He also said, "In that case, let the king make a decision for them." Let the Assassin Governor take the people of the headquarters to the south, break the six towns of Yanbian in North Korea, and ask the king of Korea what decision he made. ”
As far as the location of Haixi is concerned, the closest is not the Liaodong Metropolitan Division of the Ming Dynasty, but the six towns of Yanbian in North Korea. This is in itself beneficial to North Korea.
North Korea honestly doesn't do anything, and maybe it will let him go first. But now he is not self-sufficient, and he has sent troops to the six towns along the border on a large scale.
If you don't return the color first, it doesn't actually mean that you're afraid of North Korea first.
A Thorn Zhiyuan, is also the first old subordinate, the veteran of the thorn. He was a general during the dejoyous period. His real name is actually a thorn, and the so-called prefect is his official position.
The official name of the Yuan Dynasty likes to be called a certain courtyard. Naturally, the prefect is in charge of this prefect.
But the specific reason is to know which one, it is the Privy Council, the Supervisory Yuan, these are all issues that do not need to be studied in detail, after all, although they are also the officials around them, they are all hung up with the official positions of the Yuan Dynasty, but they are all just a fictitious title.
It's not useful at all.
However, it also illustrates the status of the Thorns in the Tile Thorn Army.
Generally speaking, in the Yuan Dynasty, a certain prefect in the center of the Yuan Dynasty was less at the level of the Ming Dynasty, and it was another name for the prime minister.
Ah Thorn is now in his fifties, silent, listened to Yexian's order, didn't say a word, and took his headquarters to the south. From Hercynian to the Six Towns, it is to enter the mountainous area.
The march was difficult.
However, the army led by Ah Thorn is the elite of the thorn, and it is natural to climb over the mountains and mountains like leveling the ground. In just three days, they crossed the Mentu River and entered the territory of Korea.
The assassin quickly sent people to find out the North Korean defenses.
The addition of six towns in Yanbian, North Korea, that is, the efforts of more than ten years, on the whole, are still vast and sparsely populated, and the foundation of the first two towns of Kongzhou and Qingyuan is the most stable.
Nor is it targeted by the Assassination Academy.
Kongzhou City is not big, after all, North Korea's manpower and material resources cannot be compared with the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty can use several years to build a Haixi City out of nothing in Haixi, but North Korea's management of the six towns in Yanbian is much worse.
Therefore, Kongzhou City is actually just a county seat, and it is even thinner than the county seat.
There is no way, where is the national strength of the DPRK.
The Assassin used an unpretentious, but dangerous and unusual method.
At the same time as the extensive ranger blockade was detailed, three hundred armor soldiers were dispatched to rush straight to the gate of Kongzhou City
。
This trick seems to be very stupid, but it is a quick word.
By the time the defenders of Kongzhou discovered the Tile Spur cavalry, the army was already about a hundred steps away from the city gate, and it was too late to do anything.
I could only watch as the Tile Spur cavalry rushed into Kongzhou City.
Naturally, there is no suspense about this result.
The Tile Thorn cavalry entered the city, and after more than an hour of fighting, the Korean army did not have a single live mouth, and then the Thorn deliberately released some live mouths.
Let the North Koreans know that Kong Zhou has been lost.
As the first military town established by the six towns of Yanbian, Kongzhou is naturally the core of the defense of this area. It is impossible for the North Koreans not to want to take it back
Therefore, after hesitating for a few days, the North Korean army of 30,000 troops to help the border was advanced to Kongju.
They were afraid of the Tile Thorn cavalry, and walked quite cautiously.
One by one, wearing hats, the Korean soldiers walked cautiously in the mountain road, but when they got out of the mountain road, they suddenly opened up in front of them, but they were flat on one side.
This flat land is not too big, there is the sea not far from one side, and the mountains on the west side, as long as there is a narrow plain between the mountains and the sea.
But on the plains, the Tile Thorn Iron Rider didn't know how long he had been waiting.
Except for a few rangers, the cavalry of the tile spurs all fell off their horses one by one to rest, and even drank the horses and drank the dry food, as if the Korean army in front of them was not worth mentioning at all.
But the North Korean soldiers were taken aback.
Before the North Korean army marched, scouts were also sent, but none of the scouts sent back news, I thought it was an accident, but I didn't know that all the scouts of the North Korean army had been killed.
And the scouts are the eyes of the army, and the tile thorn actually pulled out all the scouts of the North Korean army, that is, the North Korean army became blind.
The consequences of such an attack are unimaginable. But Wattshorn didn't do that.
Rather, they waited so arrogantly for the North Korean army to enter the battlefield.
Let the North Korean commander be angry and hateful, that is, he is angry that the spur side is too big. However, I also thanked the Tsao of Wathorn for giving him a chance to win.
The North Korean generals immediately reorganized their soldiers and horses, and the 30,000 military formations were slowly lined up, with long spears like a forest, swords and shields, and countless hats almost connected together, with a bit of majesty.
I have to admit that the North Korean army in this era actually still has a certain combat effectiveness. Today's Joseon king has fought the Jurchens and the Japanese invaders, which is the period of rising national strength.
It's just that the gap between big and small countries is too big.
The Assassin Academy is such a veteran, he naturally knows how the battle is fought, and the so-called Tuoda, the benevolence of the woman will not appear in the brain of the Assassin Academy.
In fact, he has his own purpose in letting the North Korean army go so freely.
What he pursued was not to break the army, but to break the courage, and under the First World War, the North Korean army would think of today when it saw the Tile Thorn army.
