Chapter 54 The opening of the capital
The night has fallen, and the moonlight today is exceptionally good, the sky full of stars accompanied by the full moon shining on the ground, and the whole world looks as if it is covered with a hazy veil, giving people a feeling of some illusory and ethereal.
Li Shen lay on the bed, looked at His Majesty Li Er who was lying on the side with disgust, stretched out his hand and waved, this foot stinks a little bit, isn't it?
Flipping his body slightly, Li Shen was a little helpless, what did he have to squeeze into the same bed with him?
"Don't hurry up and go to sleep, we have to march tomorrow morning."
Li Shen let out an "oh".
The long dark night, suffering from the stench, Li Shen didn't know when he fell asleep.
The neighing of the war horse, the chaotic footsteps, accompanied by the sound of various things colliding, woke up Li Shen in his sleep, opened his eyes and looked at His Majesty Li Er who was standing not far away, he was slightly startled, exhaled, sat up, grinned and forgot the injury behind his buttocks, and said, "Father, early in the morning." ”
"Get up, it's not too early."
Today's war has almost entered the final state for Li Shen, even in the face of more Goryeo soldiers, for him it is just to die, gunpowder has also shown its super power in this era.
As the war progressed, these days you can also see the Goryeo stick people wandering everywhere, including many Han family children, and they also know that the victory of several wars, including the massacre of people for no reason, made the nearby people panic and began to leave their homes to escape the war.
Because the Goryeo sticks are mixed with a lot of Han people who used to escape the war, Li Shen has no choice, he can't arrest them all at once and interrogate them one by one, and now there are too many Goryeo sticks who can speak Chinese, even ordinary people can speak fluent Chinese, and it is really a bit difficult not to ask carefully.
Li Shen doesn't care, anyway, he is not the people of Datang, even if he escapes to Datang, what can he do, he has also thought about waiting for two or three years to conduct a census of the whole population of Datang to eliminate the people of different races hidden in Datang.
Besides, the ancestors of Goryeo sticks are still the descendants of Yan and Huang, unless it is a last resort, Li Shen will not carry out the extermination of the people, but if he wants to re-accommodate them into the big embrace of China, he also knows that it is very difficult, but for the aborigines, he is not ready to let go, what to do, he is still the same, and for those who have lived in Goryeo for more than three generations, corresponding punishments will be carried out. After all, the benefits can't be taken advantage of, they ran away as soon as China was in chaos, without the spirit of sharing weal and woe, and if they don't give a lesson, they are sorry for the people who are working hard for the survival of Huaxia.
Li Shen knew that Goryeo, Silla and Baekje would not perish, and with their demise, the entire Korean Peninsula would enter a state of chaos, but if he wanted to wipe them all out at once, he also knew that it was impossible, the key was that there was no time, and the soldiers could not bear it, and the current economic conditions of the Tang Dynasty would not allow it, what he had to do now was to let Su Dingfang wipe out all the powerful families living in this land, and let them kill each other by themselves, It's a lot easier to wait a few years to clean up the mess.
The drums roared, and the Xuanjia army led by His Majesty Li Er was wearing black armor, and the sunlight shone on the black armor, and the reflected light gave people the feeling that it was not dazzling, but that they wanted to face the demons that came out of hell, which made people shudder.
Li Shen smashed his tongue slightly, completely unexpectedly that this group of soldiers who usually looked inconspicuous would emit such an aura, and the overall cold aura overshadowed the scorching sun above his head.
Li Shen looked at the black and suppressed a large group of Goryeo sticks standing on the city wall not far away, smiled coldly, looked at Gao Jianwu, the lord of the Goryeo stick country who was sitting at the bottom of the city gate tower and wearing a Ming and yellow dragon robe, and said to His Majesty Li Er beside him: "Father, can you go to war?" Rest early after playing. ”
His Majesty Li Er glanced at Li Shen, nodded, and said, "You will command this battle." ”
Li Shen smiled and nodded, knowing that he would say this, the new style of war was just to talk to him, and he wanted to take charge of the army alone, so he didn't have the bottom in his heart, and said: "The whole army listens to the order, and the sword and shield soldiers take a hundred steps forward." ”
The soldier holding the flag waved the big flag in his hand and began to mobilize the sword and shield soldiers.
"Fifty steps forward for the catapult." Li Shen shouted.
"Boom Boom~~~"
A group of armoured soldiers drove fifty catapults and began to move slowly.
"The soldiers are divided into two ways to prevent the Goryeo soldiers from escaping." Li Shen shouted.
Several catapult training sessions have been carried out, and as soon as the catapult reaches the designated position, the elixir is placed in the groove of the catapult.
"Hit ~~~"
Ignited and thrown, neatly and orderly without the slightest panic, His Majesty Li Er looked at the clay pot that was quickly thrown into the sky, and frowned slightly.
"Bang~~~~"
Some of them exploded in mid-air, and some of the Goryeo soldiers who hit the city wall exploded and turned into a ball of fire, and the iron slag that shot shallow everywhere quickly concentrated the people around them, and the severed limbs and internal organs flew sideways, blood sprayed everywhere, and a raging fire ignited in the city.
Twenty rounds of artillery fire, the entire city wall of the Goryeo soldiers standing on the city wall became sluggish, most of them had already broken their courage, from running to the city wall, there is still the courage to stand on the city wall and wait for death.
As the battle rang out on this side, the sound of dense explosions sounded on the other two sides of the city wall at the same time.
"Fifty paces forward for the sword and shield soldiers, fifty paces for the catapults." Li Shen shouted loudly.
Li Shen turned his head to look at His Majesty Li Er, who was sitting on horseback next to him, and said with a smile: "Father, how is it?" Isn't it exciting? ”
His Majesty Li Er nodded and said, "With such a sharp weapon, it is simply effortless to attack the city. With this in mind, I am afraid that even a three-year-old child will be able to command the soldiers to win easily. ”
His Majesty Li Er looked at Li Shen, and then said, "Fortunately, you are not sloppy in doing things, otherwise it will be up to me to clean you up." ”
Li Shen smiled and pouted slightly, when the emotion thing comes out, it becomes your exclusive thing?
"When are you going to fight?" His Majesty Li Er asked.
"There are more than 10,000 cannonballs in total, until the fight is finished, anyway, this city, Erchen doesn't want it to be erected here."
Listening to Li Shen's faint tone, His Majesty Li Er frowned slightly, and a trace of disbelief crossed his eyes.
