Chapter 431: Impossible

()

Since ancient times, the siege of the city has always been a last resort to choose the next policy, as the so-called "go to the army to attack the plan, then to attack the enemy, then to attack the army, and then to attack the city".

Because to do so comes a huge loss.

Normally, the number of people who die in siege is more than that of those who defend it, and if the defender of the city is a powerful general, then the number will be even more staggering.

Tens of thousands of people can't conquer a city of thousands, which is not uncommon in history.

As a veteran of the battlefield, Hou Junji has experienced hundreds of battles and battles, and his siege experience is also extremely rich.

In his opinion, although Beisha City is only a small city with only a few thousand people guarding it, it is backed by the big city of Goguryeo Jian'an, and it can be reinforced at any time, so if you want to take it, you must do one word - fast!

It is necessary to quickly capture Beisha City with strong troops, and then build new fortifications in case Jian'an Cheng sends troops to attack, and if you want to do this, the number of siegers in Hou Junji's heart must be at least 100,000!

Zhang Liang has already taken 50,000 people with him, that is to say, Gao Ming must bring another 50,000 people, and he also needs to cross the sea unscathed, and finally be in one place with Zhang Liang's soldiers and horses, so that it is possible to capture Beisha City within a few days.

But what did he hear now? Gao Ming actually said that he would only take twenty people?

Is this a preparation to send war exploits to the Goguryeo people?

At this time, Hou Junji really wanted to slap Gao Ming twice by the collar, so that he would be sober and sober.

But in the end, he still didn't have the courage to do so, but grinned at Gao Ming without smiling.

"Prince...... Uh, General, you said you were taking twenty people with you? That one...... Did the Admiral hear it wrong? Actually, you mean you're going to take 200,000 people with you, right? ”

Hou Junji felt that Gao Ming was blown by the cowhide, so he wanted to give Gao Ming a step down, but what he didn't expect was that Gao Ming didn't plan to ask for his steps.

As soon as his words fell, Gao Ming shook his head very seriously.

"No, you heard me right, I'm just going to bring twenty people, and I'm going to bring my tank, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit down when there are too many people."

"Uh......"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Hou Junji couldn't help but glance outside the mansion, and when he saw the behemoth parked outside, the corners of his eyes suddenly twitched.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, your ...... That tank probably weighed tens of thousands of stones, and the sea was full of headwinds during this time, and these twenty people ...... I'm afraid I can't row a boat! ”

Hou Junji had never seen a clever steam ship, and his thoughts were still stuck on sailing ships and manpower ships, so he said so.

After listening to his words, Gao Ming couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, you don't have to worry about this, okay, you don't have to worry about this, Huzi, you go and find Lu Guogong for me, go quickly!"

"Yes!"

Huzi said yes and went out, and after a while, he walked in with Cheng Yanjin.

As soon as Cheng Biting King Kong entered the door, he hugged his fist towards Gao Ming.

"The last general Cheng bites Jin to see the general!"

Cheng Yanjin also saw the matter of Gao Ming giving Hou Junji a horse before him, and he didn't want to follow in Hou Junji's footsteps.

Seeing Cheng Yanjin coming, Gao Ming immediately smiled and nodded.

"Lu Guogong is exempt from courtesy, we are waiting for the generals to lead the troops outside, so we don't have to care about these complicated festivals!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the corners of Hou Junji's eyes twitched again.

Damn, Lao Tzu just called you "His Royal Highness the Prince" before, and you gave me a horse, and now Cheng Biting Jin, an old horseman, calls you a general, but you say that you don't care about the fragile festival, this difference is too obvious, right?

Hou Junji's resentment was boiling, but he didn't dare to show it, because he also knew that he was now excluded from the power of the Tang Dynasty, and if he dared to blow up his hair now, he would probably have to retire early.

Therefore, Hou Junji hurriedly lowered his head, for fear that he couldn't help but show an unhappy expression and be seen by Gao Ming.

In fact, Hou Junji's expression had already fallen into Gao Ming's eyes, seeing him smile bitterly and lowering his head, Gao Ming's heart was also secretly laughing.

"It seems that it is also useful to transfer Hou Jun to guard the frontier, at least let him understand the truth that 'people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads'."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming suddenly smiled slightly, and then turned his gaze to Cheng Yanjin.

"Lu Guogong, I plan to leave for the sea in a while, and I will cooperate with Zhang Liang to take Beisha City early tomorrow morning."

"Huh?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Cheng Yanjin suddenly jumped up.

"A small Beisha city, how can Admiral Lao Tiance go out? Isn't this a knife used to kill chickens? Let's let me go Laocheng, I'll take ten people with me, and promise to take Beisha City before tomorrow afternoon!" ”

Originally, Hou Junji saw Cheng Biting Jin jumping up, and thought that he was going to persuade Gao Ming, but he didn't expect that he would actually volunteer to fight Beisha City.

And he said that he would only take ten people with him, did he think that the Goguryeo people in Beisha City were all muddy?

If Gao Ming had never fought before, then Cheng Yanjin was also a veteran general, how could he make such a mistake?

Hou Junji suspected that he had seen a fake Cheng bite gold.

Just when Hou Junji's thoughts were messy, Gao Ming laughed again.

"Hahahaha, don't worry about Lu Guogong, I have more important things to hand over to you, I want you to lead the troops to Pingzhou now, and send troops to Liaodong City early tomorrow morning, you take Liaodong City as soon as possible, and then we will attack back and forth, and take Jian'an City within a day!"

Although Hou Junji had just heard Gao Ming talk about this idea before, when he heard this idea again, his face couldn't help but twitch twice.

"Heaven take Jian'an City? It's really whimsical, I'm afraid I won't be able to take it for a month, right? ”

It is normal for Hou Junji to have such thoughts, after all, Liaodong City is an important town in Goguryeo, and it is the first city to defend against the Tang Dynasty, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Moreover, there are 100,000 troops stationed in Liaodong City, which can be attacked and defended, and it is not a simple matter to take it.

But what he didn't expect happened again, as soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Cheng Yanjin slapped his chest with a "bang".

"The general rest assured, this time it will be handed over to the old minister, the old minister will bring ten cannons, and after the day, you can sit in Jian'an City and drink wine and eat meat, and the old minister dares to order the military order!"

"Uh......"

Hearing that Cheng Yanjin even shouted out the military order, Hou Junji fell into a stupor again.

As we all know, such words as the military order are not shouted casually, but must be shouted with 100% confidence.

Why does Cheng Yanjin have so much confidence? Could it be the so-called 'cannon'?

Hou Junji felt that only this explanation made sense, but a new doubt appeared in his mind.

"What is a cannon?"

Thinking of this, Hou Junji frowned again.
