Liao Riverside.

Luo Cheng led a thousand cavalry and a thousand mounted infantry to leave.

Kan Ling held high the dazzling red Luozi flag, Zhao Gui led a battalion of scouts to explore the road three hundred years ago, Jia Runpu led a battalion of three hundred light cavalry to open the way, and Qi Guoyuan led a battalion of three hundred light cavalry to the rear of the palace.

Luo Shixin's 100 heavy cavalry didn't sit in a carriage this time, they were dressed in light armor and rode on the horses, and their heavy cavalry horses were also light to follow, Luo Cheng even prepared a pack horse for each person in this heavy cavalry battalion, who was specifically responsible for carrying their human armor and vest.

The 1,000 infantry was also divided into four battalions, namely the first battalion of the third heir, the trapping camp of the fourth cunxiao, the jumping battalion of Du Fuwei, and the personal guard battalion led by Luo Chengqin.

The four battalions of the cavalry were also given battalion numbers, Zhao Gui's scout battalion number was the vanguard, Jia Runpu's light cavalry battalion number was charge, Qi Guoyuan's battalion number was broken front, and Shixin's battalion was fearless.

Luo Cheng's personal guard battalion and Shixin's heavy cavalry battalion each had 100 people, and the other six battalions had 300 people each.

Each battalion is awarded a flag and the battalion number is written.

After Lao Jia, Qi Fatzi and others each led a battalion, they also had their own general flags, although they were still the rank of captain, but their battalion could also be called the Jia Battalion or the Pu Battalion, which was a very majestic performance, and for them it was equivalent to the glory of those generals opening the mansion.

Fu Gongqi looked at the two brothers Luo Shixin and Du Fuwei with some envy, both of whom were now in their own camps. He was also a brigade commander, but this time he failed to get his own battalion number, so he could only temporarily serve as a battalion deputy in Luo Cheng's personal guard battalion.

"I don't know when I'll be able to have my own battalion number and men."

Looking at the Du Zi flag held high by the standard-bearer behind Du Fuwei, Fu Gongqi was extremely envious.

Du Fuwei smiled, following Luo Cheng for two years, he is no longer the pig baby that the family was dying of hunger. Two years of training and warfare, especially as an officer, often leading people, made him only a fourteen-year-old young man, but he already had a sharp spirit and a kind of leader temperament, although this temperament was only obtained by him deliberately imitating Luo Cheng, but it was indeed very unusual.

In addition, he has been well nourished in the past two years, and he has grown taller, and Du Fuwei, who used to be skinny, is now a tall young lieutenant.

"As long as we follow the fifth brother, let's win a few more battles, and we will naturally rise to the top."

Luo Cheng took them into the township corps, and they followed Luo Cheng, from the township corps, step by step to the first regiment of the current First Army of the Liao Expedition, which is indeed a rising tide. Luo Cheng rose step by step, and they also rose step by step.

"You said that we won such a big battle last time, after this merit document is sent to the Linshuo Palace in Zhuo County, what official position can the fifth brother be promoted?"

Du Fuwei thought about it, Luo Cheng's original position was the seven-rank Sima of Changbai Yingyang Mansion, and this Eastern Crusade made Qian get a regimental general, but this was only a wartime position, not an official position. After the war, if there is no merit, it will still be an official and return to his original position. However, this time it was such a great achievement, 2,000 people went into battle and captured, and 2,000 Goguryeo light horsemen were captured, which is a great achievement.

"What's the matter, you can also be promoted to an eagle strike general."

Eagle Strike Lang will be from the fifth grade.

"It shouldn't be able to rise so high, right, is it seven straight up from five?"

Luo Cheng, who was under the command of the Chinese army, didn't think about this, and he didn't have time to think about that now.

The battle in the wasteland, although it was a fluke, also emboldened Luo Cheng. Before the expedition, he didn't want to participate in the Eastern Crusade, he felt that the Eastern Expedition would be defeated, and the Sui army had lost hundreds of thousands of troops in history, and he didn't want to be that cannon fodder.

But now that it's all here, you have to take the initiative.

I didn't want to fight that battle, but I still fought it.

Now that he has figured it out, he can't change the general trend of history anyway, and he has been involved in this crusade, so he has to work hard and can't go with the flow.

Luo Yi said that as long as he behaves well in the future, then he will turn another thousand cavalry infantry into cavalry, so that he will have two thousand cavalry by then, which is very tempting for him.

In this Liaodong War, one more person under his hands will strengthen his strength, and he will also have more self-protection power.

Two thousand men and horses left the city of Wuliluo, and traveled about ten miles to the northwest, and there was a fortress in front of it, which was a fortress built on the hills and hills, not as dangerous as the city of Wuliluo, and not so big, the circumference was only about one mile, and each side was only more than 100 meters, which was really small and pitiful.

Moreover, the fort wall is made of rammed earth, and the height of the city is only more than two zhang.

"There's about five hundred troops in there."

Zhao Gui rode his horse to Luo Cheng and reported, "It's about a hundred light horses, plus four hundred foot soldiers." There were originally some Goguryeo granges outside the city, but now the peasants and people have withdrawn into the fort. Therefore, although the fort was not large, it had to have about 2,000 people. ”

Luo Cheng smiled, this fort is about the size of an ordinary small school, but it has to accommodate 2,000 people, and it is estimated that it is very crowded inside.

"Now it's a change of offense and defense." Qi Fat Man said with a smile. When he wasn't fighting, this dead fat man always looked flattering and surrounded Luo Cheng to pat on the back, but when he fought, he was extremely fierce.

"How?" The fourth child is more straightforward.

The secretary joined the army and offered advice, "How else can you fight, you can only fight hard." Let people cut down trees and build ladders, make siege rams, and punch into them. “

Luo Cheng looked left and right, and found that the Goguryeo people on the fortress wall probed their brains, but none of them dared to show their heads. Obviously, don't expect them to come out of the city to fight.

"According to the words of Wei Ji's room, cut down trees and build some improvised siege equipment."

Although there were no strong craftsmen, it was not difficult for the soldiers to cut down trees and make some simple equipment.

Next, Luo Cheng led his troops to station under this wolf mountain fort, and spent two days to build a batch of simple ladders, battering rams, big shields and other things.

Then on the morning of the third day, the siege was launched.

Everything is decent, unremarkable.

The crossbowmen fired arrows from both sides to suppress the city, and then the infantry rushed forward with large shields and ladders.

More than a thousand bows and crossbows fired in a volley, creating a dense rain of arrows, completely covering the section of the city wall to be attacked, and the head of the city could not be raised.

Du Fuwei took his own jumping battalion to undertake the task of climbing the city first, they held shields in their hands, held horizontal swords, and rushed forward in groups of several people, carrying the ladder.

The Goguryeo people in the city were suppressed, and only sporadic arrows were fired, which greatly reduced their stress.

Soon, ladders were erected and reached the city wall more than two feet high.

Duvowe took the lead, with a shield in his left hand and a broadsword in his mouth, and then struggled to climb upwards. The Goguryeo people in the city were also in a hurry, ignoring the rain of arrows, desperately dropping arrows downward, and lifting stones and rolling logs to smash them down, and some people poured boiling hot oil, and poured boiling dung into boiling gold juice and poured it down.

The casualties of the jumping battalion are increasing, but they are still very tenacious and climbing.

This is the simplest and most effective way to siege a city, called an ant-attached siege.

From time to time, a soldier fell from the ladder, and Luo Cheng kept an eye on the city wall and never stopped. There will inevitably be casualties in the ant-attached siege, and it will not be small, but this is the easiest and fastest way to break the city today, and the casualties are still within the range of bearing.

Shixin was also staring at the side, he clenched his fists, and chanted, "Da Lang, rush up, just rush up." ”

Du Fuwei was about to rush to the top of the city, but he was hit by a piece of wood and fell to the bottom of the city.

"Vowe!" Xiaoliu exclaimed.
