Autumn October.

Xu Shiji's Ninth Route Army invaded Baekje, and the Baekje army only dared to retreat in the fortified city and did not dare to fight. The Silla Kingdom was also ordered to send troops and invade from the east of Baekje in five directions.

For a time, Baekje was full of smoke and overwhelmed.

Baekje had no choice but to ask for help from the Wa Kingdom, but after the 10,000 troops led by the Prince of the Wa Kingdom were annihilated at the mouth of the Yeongsan River, the follow-up tens of thousands of troops were unable to advance, and the battle between the regent crown prince and the ruling Soga Mazi became increasingly fierce, but at this time, the Bohai Fleet of the imperial court and the newly built North Sea Fleet also began to frequently land and plunder along the coast of the Wa Kingdom.

A large number of merchant ships turned into armed pirate ships, and with the plunder permits issued by the imperial court, they followed behind the two fleets and flocked to the Japanese islands like sharks.

The Japanese people are too busy to take care of themselves.

Xu Shiji's nine-way army, with 20,000 regular soldiers and more than 40,000 auxiliary soldiers, a total of more than 60,000 troops crossed the Cheling Mountains and fought all the way to Sihyeong, the capital of Baekje.

Wei Zhongxian and Li Fuguo, two eunuchs, led the Beihai and Bohai fleets, followed by thousands of armed merchant ships of all sizes, also gathered and arrived at the mouth of the Xiongjin River.

The upper reaches of the Xiongjin River is the capital city of Baekje, Si Xuan, and Daqin advances by land and water, with 100,000 soldiers.

And Silla also sent 50,000 troops to stab Baekje in the back.

By this time, the Baekje court had already lost the sharpness it had when it had just mutinied, and it had been fighting with the Qin army for so long, they could not attack and attack, they could not defend and prevent, there were no reinforcements outside, and they gradually lost the support of the people inside.

Originally, those people in Baekje thought that after these people came up, they really had some ability, and they hoped that they would be able to live a better life in the future, but who knew that these people were just powerful in words, and as a result, they didn't have any real ability.

In the end, I only knew that the continuous tax increases and donations were carried out again and again, which made the country very dissatisfied.

The fifth day of October.

The 100,000 land and water alliance army of Great Qin met on the outskirts of Sixian.

Flags are flying all over the sky.

Xu Shiji expressed his gratitude to the two eunuchs who led the sailors.

"The sage told me not to be in a hurry, but seeing that this piece of fat is hanging in front of me, I can eat it with my mouth open, how can I not be in a hurry. With the full help of the two ambassadors, as well as the assistance of Silla and the Young, this was a good time to destroy Baekje in one fell swoop. ”

Wei Zhongxian said with a smile, "I don't dare to say whether we can destroy Baekje in one fell swoop, but this time I will break the capital city of Baekje, Sihyun, for sure." ”

"Destroy its capital, capture its king, and destroy the rebels in its country, and Baekje will naturally spread the word that it can be determined." Li Fuguo said with a smile.

Everyone was smiling happily.

The emperor said that he was not in a hurry to fight a hard battle, and that he was fighting a decisive battle, because he wanted to gradually encroach, or even to harass and weaken Baekje with looting and raiding first, so that it would lose its resistance step by step.

But Xu Shiji, who was on the front line, found that today's Baekje has long become a virtual appearance, shouting that there are 100,000 troops outside, but when it really starts, their command and dispatch are very bad.

If you don't take it if you have the chance, you will regret it.

"If you want to say that these Baekje people are stupid, don't they have five capitals? This Si Yu City is so close to the Belt Fang, they can go straight to Si Yu City after crossing the Cheling Mountain Range, but they have not retreated to other capitals, this is not looking for death. Li Fuguo Road.

Wei Zhongxian said, "Actually, these Baekje people have nowhere to retreat, the place is so big, the north is our Obibang County, and the east is Silla, you said that the west and the south are both the sea, but this sea is not safe, with our fleet, the closer to the sea, the faster it will die." ”

Facing the soldiers of the Qin army approaching the city.

It seems that the Baekje monarchs still want to resist stubbornly, and finally organized 50,000 people out of the city and lined up in the suburbs by the river and the mountains.

Xu Shiji was dismissive of Baekje's resistance.

"At this time, I dare to go out of the city to fight, but I also have a bit of courage and know a little bit of the art of war, but in terms of the morale of the Baekje army, how can I still fight the crowd with less?"

Xu Shiji faced the sand table, and he didn't need to deploy more, and directly advanced the whole army.

The fleet carried grain, grass, baggage, catapults, crossbows and other weapons in the river, and marched on the river bank.

The seventh day of October.

The two armies met at the foot of the Yellow Mountain on the outskirts of Si Xuan, on the side of the Xiongjin River.

The cavalry covered, and the infantry advanced neatly.

The mountains are all over the wilderness, and they are all soldiers and horses.

In the Qin army, more than a dozen tall watchtower cars were erected early to observe the order.

Although it was 100,000 land and water foot cavalry, Xu Shiji's command of the entire army was still like an arm's command, and the 100,000 army was scattered in the river and on the shore for more than ten miles, mobilizing in an orderly manner and without any chaos.

In contrast, the Baekje army only fought in a daze, stubbornly defending in a temporary camp by the river at the foot of the mountain, hoping to rely on camps, trenches, and horse rejection to stop the enemy.

On the seventh day of the first month, the Qin army moved frequently, and all the soldiers and horses were deployed according to the order, but the Baekje army did not move.

The scout light cavalry led by Yuwen Chengdu and others kept wandering outside the camps of the Baekje army at this time, and the Baekje people did not even dare to send rangers to drive the Qin army away from the camp except for occasionally releasing a few arrows, so as to prevent the camp defense deployment from being spied on.

One by one, the information was constantly uploaded, and finally gathered in front of Xu Shiji.

The defense of the Baekje people, the number of troops in each village, the number of troops, etc., were all controlled by the Qin army.

"Push the Divine Cannon and Heavy Crossbow forward!"

Throughout the day, the Qin army was like Mount Tai slowly pressing.

By the time it got dark, the Qin army was already in front of the Baekje army.

As night fell, the Baekje army still did not dare to attack the camp.

The Baekje army did not dare to come out, but Xu Shiji still sent rangers to harass them, which was a decent use of troops, and groups of rangers would approach the Baekje camp every once in a while at night to make an attack.

The Baekje people were frightened every time, and although the Qin army did not really storm the camp until dawn, it also made the Baekje people tired.

On the contrary, on the Qin army's side, except for the rangers and some of the soldiers on duty, the rest of the soldiers slept with peace of mind last night, and when they woke up in the morning, after breakfast, they were all fierce.

Xu Shiji got up in the morning, and he still had time to ask his own soldiers to carefully trim his beard, and even shaved his face.

"It seems that the victory is in hand?" Wei Zhongxian said.

Xu Shiji said to Chai Shao, "Chai Sima can explain it to Ambassador Wei." ”

Chai Shao said, "Last night, our army arrived newly, but the Baekje army did not dare to go out of the camp, but our army attacked and disturbed, every time the thief camp was very quiet, and it did not subside for a long time, which shows that the enemy's ability is limited, and its soldiers are not elite enough, otherwise even if they are harassed at night, there will not be such a big reaction, so our army will win." ”

After breakfast, Xu Shiji and the others put on their armor and got on their horses and came to the front of the battle.

"The people of Baekje haven't even sent out a single ranger since yesterday, what kind of battle is this, a blind man's battle?"

When the two armies fight, even if it is a head-on battle, they have to send rangers to each other, and try their best to find out the number and deployment of the enemy, so that they can deal with the deployment, but the Baekje people, perhaps every time the rangers fight, they suffer losses, so they can't defend now.

It is clear that the battle will be carried out to the end.

Xu Shiji smiled disdainfully, "These people, since they want to go out of the city to fight, but they are shrinking like this, what is the point of going out of the city?" Why didn't he just shrink into the city of Siyu? I don't understand these people, but it's okay to do this, it's better to fight these temporary camps than Si Xian City, and when the enemy army here is broken, Si Xian can take advantage of the victory. ”
