In the middle of the night, the sound of artillery fire sounded again, and another 20,000 slave soldiers charged forward.

Soon repulsed by artillery, the opponent again did not move.

Li Xiaogong knew that the other party was tempting, but he couldn't figure it out, what did the other party plan?

After waiting for three days, through the binoculars, Li Xiaogong finally saw the new rows of artillery in the enemy formation.

Ordered people to count with telescopes, there are 4,000 gates, or even more.

"Where did this Goguryeo get such a quantity of iron?"

In the whole territory of the Tang Dynasty combined, the artillery is less than 10,000, but there are 2,000 gates in the city of Goguryeo, and there are 3,000 in hand, so it seems that there should be more.

Li Xiaogong's question was quickly answered.

Eleven smiled bitterly: "What if Goguryeo has iron ore?" ”

Li Xiaogong was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Send strange soldiers out of the city, if they really put themselves on a good posture, we can't hold this city!" ”

There are really a lot of generals under Li Xiaogong, and if you want to say that the famous one is Guo Shi.

The three generations are all Shangzhu countries, after the Tang Dynasty is illustrious.

"Marshal, General Eleven, the last general is willing to take advantage of the night to lead the army out of the city, and when the other party is unprepared tomorrow, listen to the sound of artillery and attack it!"

Li Xiaogong casually picked up the token from the table, "The military order is like a mountain, do you dare to die?" ”

Guo Shi replied: "As a Tang Dynasty person, he died as the soul of the Tang Dynasty, and he will never be afraid of life and death!" ”

"Pick it up!"

"Xie Dashuai!"

"Ben Shuai can only give you 5,000 men, and what you have to do is to destroy the opponent's artillery array!"

"The last general commands!"

Eleven said to Guo Shi: "Bring more gunpowder with you, leave some thoughts for your brothers, and then you can go out of the city at night." ”

If you go here, you will definitely die, and there is no possibility of escape from 5,000 to 100,000 people.

If it weren't for the fear that there were too few people and would not be able to break the other party's human barrier, Li Xiaogong would probably not even be willing to prepare for five thousand people.

Guo Shi was ordered to retreat and went to fetch gunpowder and distribute it to the soldiers who were dying with him.

The lead was at the waist, and the torch did not dare to be lightly opened.

"Cut your hair!"

The knife was drawn out, cut off all of them, and gave them to their comrades.

I hope they can bring their relics back to Datang and miss their loved ones at home, but unfortunately the enemy of the country and the family are hated in the past, how can they be greedy for life and afraid of death?

It's just a war!

In an instant, it was one-sixth less, which was even more of a test for Tang Jun.

To tell the truth, those hundreds of thousands of people are overwhelmed, and they can die in piles.

It's just that the other general's generals won't be so impulsive, after all, if they really want to do this, there may not be many Goguryeo people left who can survive.

The torches were lit, and Guo Shi led the army, leaving Liaocheng at night, detouring to the path where they had been before, waiting for the second day of the battle.

The 3,000 artillery pieces in the hands of Yuan Nanchan were ready to attack Liaocheng.

It took nearly a month to go back and forth, and my father was afraid that he would feel that he was not doing well.

Yuan Nan didn't want it, because a small Liao city affected his mind to seize the throne.

You need to know that now the war between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo has just begun.

Since Goguryeo can take Wadao, it proves that the opponent's maritime forces are by no means a minority, but they have not really made a move yet.

On the other side, Li Shimin is also preparing.

All the workers of the Ministry of Industry started to build ships and guns, and tens of thousands of craftsmen worked day and night, and it was difficult to stop.

Li Shimin is waiting, and Yuangai Suwen is also waiting, but the difference is that Yuangai Suwen is waiting for an opportunity.

The war at the front continues to escalate, and Li Shimin in the rear has prepared 200,000 soldiers and horses, and the grain and grass transferred from all over the country are enough to support these 200,000 people to fight for three years!

It's just that Li Shimin didn't know that Yuangai Suwen was more prepared than him.

The Tang Dynasty is a dragon, and Goguryeo is only a jackal at most. Biting down on a piece of dragon meat, I really want to eat Datang, but Yuan Gai Suwen knows that he doesn't have that ability.

A few days later, an update came back from the front.

Li Shimin was silent for a long time after seeing it, "Five thousand soldiers, that's it?" ”

Are you talking about Guo Shi?

Could it be that the previous plan failed?

In fact, it is not a failure, it can only be said to be a small part.

The suicide attack, although it made the Goguryeo army a little panicked, faced with several times the enemy, and countless people died with every step of the way.

When they actually rushed to the artillery, there were less than a hundred people left.

A popping sound sounded, and hundreds of Goguryeo artillery pieces were blown up.

But there are still more than 2,000 doors waiting on the side, and Li Xiaogong and Eleven miscalculated.

They could never have imagined that the other party was so difficult.

Of the 5,000 Tang sergeants, there is no one who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

When it comes to death, they will pounce on the nearest enemy and detonate the gunpowder on their bodies.

That scene is not the attitude of the Tang Dynasty towards Goguryeo!

Dare to fight, not afraid of death!

Li Xiaogong didn't know that Yuan Nan almost blew them up.

The task of guarding the artillery could not be handed over to the slave soldiers, so it was naturally guarded by the soldiers of the palace.

This is also the real reason why when Guo Shi led people to break through the formation, he would cause huge casualties every time he took a step forward.

Because they were facing the elite army of Goguryeo.

Even so, Goguryeo paid the price of 10,000 dead and thousands injured.

Yuan Nan was very unlucky, and he was still in the camp tent, planning to wait until the artillery fire interlude, and then swagger into Liaocheng.

But no one could have imagined that those Tang soldiers came to their side by some means and gave him a resounding slap in the face.

"Bastard! Order all the slaves to break the city! ”

A Tang sergeant blew himself up not far from the Yuan Boy, and the Yuan Boy who couldn't dodge was slightly injured as a result.

Completely enraged by the madness of the Tang army, he directly ordered a full-scale attack regardless of any result.

Li Xiaogong's side quickly reacted, his idea was very simple, cannon to gun, shoot your artillery first!

In the blink of an eye, the two sides turned into Armageddon.

No one knows what will happen to them in the next moment.

"Give Ben Shuai! We've lost the shells, and we've got the blades in our hands! Datang Tianwei should not be taken lightly! ”

Artillery bombardment, because it occupies a high place, so Li Xiaogong's side has a gap of dozens of meters more than the Goguryeo.

And just the position of these tens of meters also allowed them to take advantage of the first hand, and they fought down in two rounds, not to mention the destruction of hundreds of artillery pieces and thousands of Goguryeo soldiers.

It's a pity that when the Goguryeo artillery was erected, all advantages were in vain.

The city gate was only in the middle of the day, and the two sides were more terrible than hand-to-hand combat, and it completely became to see who was killed first.

In six hours, the south gate of Liaocheng was completely flattened, and there were less than 2,000 people left in the 25,000 Tang Army.

On the Goguryeo side, 70,000 or 80,000 people died, to say the least.

The main reason why Goguryeo was higher than the Tang army was that the gunpowder reserves in Liaocheng were much higher than those of the other side.

In the face of the two sides that had completely torn their faces, as soon as the south gate was broken, Li Xiaogong asked people to pull all the artillery in the city to the south and continue to bombard.

Later, when the Goguryeo army reunited, they encountered a mine array prepared in advance by the Eleventh, which cost many lives.
