Chapter 607: Anshi City

Chapter 607: Anshi City

Located in the lower reaches of the Liao River near Anshan, Anshi City, Liaoning Province, was founded in the Jin Dynasty and has always existed as an important military fortress, and was divided by Goguryeo during the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

At that time, Tang Taizong personally conquered Goguryeo, and the momentum was like a bamboo, but in the end, he was blocked in Anshi City and returned with hatred. The steepness of Anshi Castle can be seen.

Anshi City is backed by high mountains, facing Liaoshui, the city is high and full of soldiers, and there are many 8,000 people. Even more difficult to deal with was the Bohai Sea Army, which was stationed nearby. Because it is located in the lower reaches of the Liao River and has a wide waterway, Anshi City was selected by Zhang Wenxiu as the station.

The power of the navy lies in the fact that they can cut off the Tang army crossing the river at any time, or let it cross the river, and then cut off the retreat of the Tang army and block the logistics supply.

On the west bank of Liaoshui, Li Huaitang was at a loss. In the battle of Liaoxi City, the vitality of the Bohai Sea army was greatly damaged, but it did not affect their ability to blockade Liaoshui. More than 20,000 troops of the Eastern Expedition stopped their advance and did not dare to cross the river rashly.

Originally, the logistical supply had not yet been put in place, and it was not suitable to continue to use troops, but Li Huaitang unexpectedly received sponsorship -- the grain that Zhang Wenchong had worked hard to accumulate over the years was stored in the city of Liaoxi, which was enough for his 30,000 troops to eat for several months.

Soldiers are fast. Li Huaitang immediately made a decision and led the cavalry to attack Anshi City, trying to take this important stronghold blocking the road to Port Arthur in one fell swoop.

Even the wise can make mistakes. In Li Huaitang's subconscious, the Bohai Sea Army should ride the wind and fight the 'waves' on the sea, and the facts were unexpected, and Li Huaitang was dumbfounded: Zhang Wenxiu's remnants of the Navy Army did not do their job, and actually took the inland river as their home port, like a bloodthirsty crocodile, lying across the Liaoshui River, eyeing the tiger.

If the navy does not go ashore, no matter how 'elite' the cavalry is, it can only be helpless. Seeing the weak and vulnerable Bohai Sea Army, Li Huaitang's 'elite' cavalry was stunned. As a result, consuming time becomes the only entertainment for both parties.

The distance of the Bohai fleet is not far, but in this era when communication is basically relied on roaring, no one in Ningyuan Iron Cavalry knows the legendary thousand-mile sound transmission magic skill, and he can't call the Bohai fleet.

The fighter plane is fleeting, and if it can't take Anshi City before the Great Martial Arts gathers the main force to come to support, it is very likely that it will fall into a bitter battle in the future.

There are many mountains and rivers in Liaodong, and along the main rivers, there are many castles. From Anshi City to the north, the tributaries of Liaoshui, Liangshui River, and Liaodong City and Baiya City in turn, the three cities echo each other as horns, even if Li Huaitang traces the north to the north, he will face the pain of attacking the city one by one, the key is that Anshi City is stuck in an extremely important logistics supply channel in his plan.

According to the advice of the army guide, Da Men' Yi, you should not pay attention to these castles, fight snakes and fight seven inches, directly wave your army to the north and then go north, go deep behind the enemy to capture Buyeo City, and then use this as a base to take the Bohai Governor's Mansion to the east.

The courage of the big 'door' art is very big, and the words are also 'strong' and moving, but they failed to impress Li Huaitang, he just didn't listen to it.

For these rebellious Hu people, according to the city, the next best thing, and the elimination of their living force is the king. When the god of war Xue Rengui invaded Goguryeo, he first broke its main force, then advanced thousands of miles to raid Buyeo City, and then turned back to besiege Pyongyang, completing the feat of destroying the country.

War has its own internal laws, and the conditions are not ripe and cannot be forced. The art of war is cloudy, the soldiers are impermanent, and the water is impermanent. Li Huaitang quickly adjusted his strategy, since the Bohai Sea rebelled and did not cross the river, he would watch the food and eat, actively prepare for war while waiting, and wipe out the main force of the great martial arts on the west bank of Liaoshui, and it is not impossible to go under the city of Liaoxi.

Across the Liaoshui, the city lord of Anshi City, Quan Kennan, was furious.

What angered him was his eldest son, Lang Quan Wan 'Chun'.

It can only be said that Quan Jiannan was unlucky, when the king's favorite concubine was plundered by the pirates, he was leading the army outside and following the general Jinni to besiege Yingzhou. The remaining Quanwan 'spring' only knew the 'flower' heaven and wine, and when he received a request for help, he only sent a mere 200 people to go south with the deputy general of Liaoxi City, and missed a good opportunity to ask the king for merit.

Quan Jian's male soldiers were defeated and returned to the city, and when he learned of all this, he quickly made up for his mistakes, and ordered Quan Wan 'Chun' to lead 3,000 soldiers south to help the battle.

As the saying goes, it's really not deceiving, mud can't hold up the wall. Quanwan 'Chun' did not change his cowardly nature, and he abandoned his armor and fled back before he even saw the shadow of the enemy.

On the culprit, this account should be counted on Lang Gui's body, thousands of soldiers and horses can't beat the rabble of pirates, and they were almost killed by hundreds of horsemen, and it is good to die, but there are fish that have slipped through the net, and Quan Wan's 'spring' is scared out of the body.

Heaven is very fair, let Quan Wan 'spring' have the courage to lose, and give compensation on the skin. Drowned in his father's spit, Quan Wan's 'spring' had no shame in his 'color', and he said: "Father, my son has lost less than a dozen people, which is better than that Lang Gui." ”

This is a fact and cannot be denied.

Quan Jiannan glared, he was born in the army, and the doctrine he believed in was scimitar and iron hooves, and he couldn't tell the truth of fifty laughs and one hundred.

Words are poor, anger is angry, violence is violent.

Quan Wan 'Chun' bared his teeth and cracked his mouth, jumping up and down to avoid the fierce horsewhip.

"Ouch, it hurts! Don't, don't fight, don't fight, father, for the sake of Erlang to keep the main force for you, spare Erlang this time! ”

Quan Wan 'Chun' couldn't escape, so he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Genes cannot inherit temperament, and in history, children are not like fathers, such as the number of sand in the Ganges, and the list is endless. Unfortunately, Izumi Keno's son falls into this category. Quan Jiannan calls himself a hero, but he gave birth to a son from head to toe, and he can't even bear the pain of **. The more he thought about it, the more he held his breath, and the whip hit him harder.

Quan Wan 'Spring' should thank Zhang Wenxiu, Zhang Wenxiu's arrival saved him from the ghost crying wolf.

"The city lord is angry, Wan 'Chun' is right. At present, the most important thing is to defend Anshi City. As for the matters to the south, we will deal with them when the king comes. ”

Quan Jiannan disagreed: "Losing Liaoxi City, and being kidnapped by Haikou and taking away Concubine Mingzhu, it will be a heavy blow to our morale, if we can eliminate Haikou and save the king's concubine, it will be beneficial to fight against the Tang army in front of us." It's a pity that this son of a son is not angry. ”

Zhang Wenxiu's idea is not so simple, there is a surprise attack by the Tang army in the west, and there is a sea invasion in the east at the same time, can it be explained by coincidence? If something is abnormal, it is a demon! After all, there are coincidental things in the world.

"You mean, it was Tang Jun who kidnapped the eldest princess? No, it's impossible, if the Datang Navy can still fight, how can there be last year's great victory in Dengzhou? ”

Keno Izumi has an attitude that I don't believe anyway.

Zhang Wenxiu couldn't figure it out, but he trusted his instincts.

"The rabble of the sea robbers, the naval battle is acceptable, and they are swarming on land. The city lord thinks that they have the ability to annihilate Lang Gui's cavalry? ”

"This?" Izumi Kennan is poor in words.

Zhang Wenxiu said: "Anshi City is extremely important, the city lord must not take it lightly, it is advisable to defend it in peace, wait for the king to withdraw his troops from Silla, and destroy the invading strong enemy in one fell swoop." ”

At that time, the main force of the Balhae Kingdom was south of the Taedong River and was fighting against the Silla Kingdom. According to the idea of great martial arts, before dealing with the powerful Tang Dynasty, it is necessary to stabilize the back road and eliminate the Silla State, which is located in the back belly of the Balhae Kingdom, which will not only relieve the worries of the future, but also greatly enhance the strength.

Compared with Zhang Wenxiu's old Cheng, Quan Jiannan saw the gap, and his old face couldn't help but be red and white, but his mouth was still tough: "Except for Haikou, who can go to Duli Town?" ”

I don't know.

Zhang Wenxiu was calm.

Who exactly is it?

As if God couldn't bear to fall into Goldbach's conjecture, he quickly revealed the answer.

I saw a soldier stumbling and running, and he didn't report for instructions.

"Oh no, the water army, the Datang water army is here!" Please keep in mind the URL, if you like "War Owl in Tang" written by the wolf under the moon
